Tower of waste

Last night we went out to a Mexican restaurant with another couple. At least I thought it was going to be a "restaurant", in the sense that they bring the food on ceramic plates with metal silverware and maybe even a cloth napkin. As it turns out, I probably negated any of the waste savings I might have made thus far. When they brought out the drinks in styrofoam cups, I knew we were in trouble. I at least took the extra napkins with me so they would not be thrown out as well. And my boyfriend and I shared one cup of water to save the extra cup.
If I had known this was really more of a taqueria/fast food place, I would've suggested an alternative. Sadly I can't even say that it was worth it for the food. We won't be going back again.
