Nanning: Foamed plastic tableware continues to ban

Last year, the national authorities issued a document three times requesting that the production, sale, and use of disposable foam plastic tableware should be stopped nationwide and that alternative products should be promoted. All this meant that disposable foam plastic tableware had been sentenced to death.
However, the reporter recently saw a lot of fast food shops in the city and the urban-rural area of ​​Nanning, where disposable foam plastic utensils are used. In some comprehensive markets in Nanning, the wholesale business of such tableware is also very prosperous.
The reporters found that in many fast-food restaurants on the University Road, Beining Street, Jianzheng Road, and Wangzhou Road in Nanning, the shopkeepers used disposable foam plastic tableware as a container when sending out for delivery. The shopkeepers who asked were all told that disposable foam plastic tableware was not allowed.
Informed sources told reporters that fast-food restaurants use disposable foam plastic tableware, driven by economic interests. In some wholesale markets in Nanning, the price of disposable foam plastic tableware is approximately 49 yuan and 600, while paper tableware is 120 yuan and 600 yuan. Taking a fast food restaurant selling 600 fast foods a day, the use of disposable foam plastic cutlery is nearly 70 yuan more than using paper cutlery, and it is 2,000 yuan a month.
In a fast-food restaurant in Beining Street, the reporter and the shop owner chatted about the disposable foam plastic utensils used in his shop. The shop owner said in a bleak manner that he knew that he should not use it, but everyone was Use, but with the flow.
It seems that to allow disposable foam plastic cutlery to withdraw from the market, first of all, the cost of its substitutes should be lowered. Moreover, the relevant management should follow up. Not only is it prohibited to use, but it also prohibits production and sale. Only in this way, disposable foam plastic tableware will completely disappear.
