I've been reading
up on gable tops and a practice of coating them in layers of polyethylene instead of wax.
Obviously this has an effect on their suitability for recycling vs
composting.
Is
there some way that one could determine, when purchasing milk, if the carton is
coated with plastic or wax?
Thanks
in advance,
Rebecca
