The Subway sandwich chain is testing recycling bins, switching its napkins, cutlery and plastic cups and cutting down on the gasoline used to transport its restaurant supplies in an effort to minimize the chain’s impact on the environment.
The nation’s largest restaurant chains have made scant progress in offering recycling for customers. No other major fast-food chain, including McDonald’s Corp., Burger King Corp., Yum Brands Inc.’s KFC and Taco Bell and Wendy’s International Inc., said it has recycling bins for customer trash at its restaurants in the U.S. Starbucks Corp. has recycling bins at some cafes on the East Coast, but they don’t accept the chain’s paper coffee cups because those can’t be recycled, according to the coffee company.
