ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

Would You Eat A Whopper That Came In Reusable Packaging?

TerraCycle Include USA Loop Mcdonalds Burger King
Sift through the contents of your average fast-food haunt, and you’ll find plenty of single-use packaging bound for a landfill. OK, maybe don’t sift through that. Still, you’ll find lots of paper drink cups with a plastic coating, discarded ketchup sachets, and sandwich boxes galore, a veritable smorgasbord of mixed material QSR waste. Now, Burger King hopes to cut down on some of that waste, announcing a pilot program alongside Terracycle’s Loop that will give customers the option to select reusable packaging when they order their food. With the zero-waste packaging company behind them, BK will offer reusable containers and cups to customers in New York, Portland, and Tokyo starting in 2021.
