Comment on The creepy capital efficiency of Goldman's cafeteriaparent

I can't quite find the brand and google is drawing a blank, but I have recently seen some disposable metal silverware (not coated plastic, real metal). I guess some french luxury brand, like Starck or Degrenne.

Just because you choose to throw something out and have it buried in the ground does not make it disposable.

It was made and distributed as disposable.

I got the explanation by someone who decided to keep some instead of throwing them.

I had to look this up because it sounded so crazy. It Is: http://www.wna.biz/UserFiles/File/Metallized_Disposable_Cutl...

They coat plastic utensils with stainless steel, and then you throw them away. Unreal.

I precisely said that I was not talking of those.

Actually when I saw them at first I assumed it was one of those, but upon further inspection, it was a full metal thing and then I got the explanation that they come from a very pricey disposable thingy (I think it's Fauchon takeaway food).
