Bumping this thread because of chopsticks.
From time to time, I’ll get some cucumber rolls from the refrigerated sushi case at Whole Foods. I’ll also grab some disposable wooden chopsticks they have available near the sushi case. When I throw them out after I have finished the sushi, however, I feel guilty about it because I only used them once. I just googled if it’s possible to reuse disposable wooden chopsticks, and this website says yes:
Plus they give some other ideas on what to do with disposable chopsticks.
I was concerned that they’d have a continued smell after using them with strong smelling foods such as soy sauce, wasabi and ginger, but I think if they’re allowed to soak in hot soapy water for a while, it might not be a problem. I’ll try it with the next pair I use.
