One of the most common plastic utensil alternatives are wooden utensils, which are biodegradable and even compostable depending on which you purchase. Wooden utensils have the benefit of being made from renewable resources without chemicals and being better for the environment once theyre thrown away, as wood breaks down much quicker than plastic. In fact, most wooden utensils will break down in about 90 days, even in home composting systems. This allows wooden cutlery to be used for creating nutrient-rich soil that can be used to fertilize other plants.
You might think that wooden utensils arent very sturdy, but if you find the right kind, they can stand up to all kinds of foods, including steak, raw veggies, and even hot liquids.
