Day One

Well, it's the first day of my challenge, and I think I already messed up. It started out fairly well. I brought a tangerine to school as a snack, so I knew that I would need some container to carry it home for composting. Check. For lunch, I went to my favorite Bangladeshi restaurant for the all-you-can lunch buffet. I figured there's no packaging to throw away, and I could make sure to eat everything on my plate. [aside] Now I know that there has to be packaging involved in the preparation of their food, but I think it would be minimized since the food is fresh and made from scratch. I'm honestly not quite sure how to deal with restaurants yet for this challenge.

Anyway, a slice of lime came with my drink, and the server took it away on the plate. So I couldn't take it home to compost. I did, however, keep the rind from my orange slice. For dinner, I had an egg sandwich on homemade bread.
