Subway starts recycling, gets new napkins and cutlery

I'm a fan of Subway, as the veggie delight sandwich on wheat (no condiments or oils) makes for a great lunch without a ton of calories when you're out and about.

From an ecological standpoint, the sandwich chain looks to be testing recycling bins as well as using newer napkins, cutlery and plastic cups in an effort to cut down on waste as well as contributing to recycling efforts.

If every fast food restaurant would adopt a few simple principles like these, the resources saved would be huge. I do know that many chains already used napkins made from recycled papers, and this is good. It's time, though, to do more.

Getting a pedicure is one of the best ways to relax after a hard day, but hitting the salon every time you feel stressed can get expensive. But no worries!...
