Field Trip to Recycle Center

Ok, I must be the worst parent ever lol. Today Tori had a feel trip to some sort of recycle center. They sent home a notice telling us to make sure she packed a lunch for that day, and to please pack things that were recyclable. So, I packed her a lunch. It was packed inside a brown paper bag. It included a sandwich packed inside a plastic sandwich container (the paper said no plastic baggies). Then I sent a snack size package of craisins, a fiber one bar (she loves these things) and an apple juice in a cardboard type box.

Yeah, the only thing she had that she could recycle was the paper bag! LOL She told me the rest went to landfill. Can't believe I sent my little girl with "trash". I thought for sure that at least the juice box could be recycle.

It's not too easy to find snacks that are in a package that can be recycled. Someone please direct me to the recycle aisle please. My daughter told me I need to be more earth friendly.

Oh well, better luck next time.
