Yogurt Tubes Are Not Recyclable
Yogurt tubes usually aren’t recyclable due to the type of plastic they contain and how difficult it is to clean them.
Plastic Soup & Rice Packaging Is Not Recyclable
Instant soup and instant rice bags are often made from layers of mixed plastic and aluminum materials, which makes them difficult to recycle. Toss them in the garbage.
