Hi Betty-
In “My Name is Betty and I am an Addict” you talk about needing ChapStick all the time. You could try using Carmex. Carmex comes in a glass jar with the metal top and you could recycle it or use it for something else.

Thanks so much for your email, Jim! I do like Carmex. Unfortunately, Carmex is no longer available in the glass jar and metal top. I tried really hard to find them until my husband found a letter online from the company rep stating that they discontinued the glass back in 1996 due to some quality issues. You can read the letter here. You can still buy a plastic container that looks the same and can be recycled and that is better than a lot of other options. I went with Burt’s Bees since they will take back their waste and recycle it properly for free through Terracycle. I’m still looking for a chapstick that is in a compostable tube that I want to try. I’ll make a post when I find what I’m looking for. Thanks again!
