“No to plastic, make Earth magic.”

This is single use wooden cutlery to replace single use plastic cutlery. Personally I prefer metal washable cutlery.

[Dione Giorgio]

Like you I prefer the metal washable ones but now it is use once and throw away. And then all over the world every government cannot dispose of the country's rubbish.

[Phil Sandford]

They have these in the client's restaurant; fork isn't bad but the knife couldn't cut margerine

[winghong_ho]

Nice capture in b&w. It is nice if they are degradable.

[Mags]

Made for some great texture and lovely wood grains there. =)

[Peter Dulis]

nice in monochrome

[John Falconer]

Thanks for the much appreciated comments. The Wooden spoons also stick to your tongue!!😀😀😀

[Nigel Rogers]

Nice picture. Save a tree and use metal less all around environmental damage.

[Dawn]

I’m with Nigel

[Merrelyn]

Nice textures, I'm not a fan of disposable cutlery either.

[Diana]

Beautifully captured but .....our poor forests and trees, now who would want wooden cutlery?

[Bill Davidson]

I agree…..

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Very cool. I like it.

[Jo Worboys]

Nice in b&w showing the textures up well

[Dave]

Like the textures. Careful of splinters.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Nice capture of design and textures in b/w. , but give me the washable steel cutlery any day!

[Kate]

Haven’t seen and disposable wooden cutlery around here. I wonder if used ones could be used for kindling to start a fire.

[Joan Robillard]

Nice

[Susan Wakely]

They look good and I get the idea of using them but don’t like the feel of them when eating.

[Agnes]

Awesome idea

[Marloes]

Me too, the taste of these wooden things is irritant.

[Neil]

Agreed.

[Maxine Lathbury]

Me too!

[Cordiander]

You're right. Wood is also limited...

[Jessica Eby]

It's everywhere here and I absolutely hate it! I've never been okay with the texture of wood being in my mouth. Even when I was little, I wanted the popsicles taken off the sticks before I'd eat them, lol.

[Olwynne]

Interesting shot

[LManning (Laura)]

Nice textures.

[Babs]

I hate the wooden throw away cutlery too. They always break on me. Give me metal any day. If I was in hospital and had to use these, I would ask a friend to bring my own cutlery in for me and use that. ha ha

Thank you everybody.
The consensus seems to be the wooden cutlery is not as good as washable metal cutlery!!

[Rob Z]

Have to agree with you!

[Judith Johnson]

I agree - I don't like the feel of the wood against the tongue!

[Carole Sandford]

Nice capture & I agree with you. I would think that the knife wouldn’t be very effective compared to the metal ones.

[Lin]

Love the textures and lighting...well captured. (and I'm a "wash the metal cutlery girl" - I've owned the same sets for decades)

[Christine Sztukowski]

Lovely texture and nicely composed, I agree metal is best

[Chris Cook]

I’m with you on the metal cutlery John but the wooden ones sure made a nice photo. I like the grain and the texture. Good choice to go b&w.

[Phil Howcroft]

yes metal always John

[Kathy]

I'm with you John. I usually avoid most things that need to be discarded. Of course there are special circumstances. These have an interesting pattern.

[Pyrrhula]

No only once`s use . Is as bad as. ( But you display and pic. is nice .)

[KoalaGardens🐨]

yeah, still better to reuse for sure

[Islandgirl]

Great shot, I don't mind the wooden cutlery!

[Kathy A]

I hate wooden cutlery, the knife doesn't cut anything and the spoon feels terrible on my tongue

[Lynda Parker]

A lot of the wooden cutlery are made from bamboo, which I'm allergic to, so I'm all for metal cutlery too. When I'm going to takeaway places, I often bring my own metal cutlery so I don't have to worry about the wooden cutlery.

[Call me Joe]

Yesssss!👌

[Diane]

I'm with you about the cutlery. Nice shot.

[John Falconer]

Thanks yet again for commenting. From what I can see the wooden cutlery just goes into landfill.

[Rick]

Don't think I could put the wooden spoon or fork in my mouth. Like you, I would prefer the metal cutlery.

[Shutterbug]

I prefer washable metal utensils also. They have very efficient (waterwise and energy wise now). Our community center bought one a few years ago and that let us get rid of plastic.

[KWind]

Super B&W! I like the textures of the wood.

[Paula Fontanini]

Well at least you got a really nice b/w photo with great texture out of it!! :)

[eDorre]

Neat textures and composition

[Bill Ososki]

I agree with you, but this is so much better than plastic

[John Falconer]

@rickster549 @shutterbug49 @kwind @bluemoon @edorreandresen @ososki

Thanks for the much appreciated comments. Bring on metal cutlery!!

[Boxplayer]

Yes agreed

[Issi Bannerman]

Yes. Better than plastic, not as good as the old fashioned metal variety!

[John Falconer]

@boxplayer @jamibann
Thanks. I got steel utensils today!

[Vesna]

I prefer washable metal utensils!

[John Falconer]

@vesna0210
I think we all do now!! 😀😀😀

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I don't know how this could be better for the earth when you have to cut down trees to make them. At least you can recycle plastic. But I'm with you, the metal ones are the best. However, I do like this shot!

[John Falconer]

Thanks Ann
