MAMA CARES ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT
Mama always said: "Do good and don't think about it, do bad and think about it."
​
This philosophy guides us not just in our treatment of other people, but also the environment. Below you'll find a full list of how to responsibly recycle/dispose of every component of our lasagnas' packaging.
​
While some of the plastics used on our packaging unfortunately cannot be recycled, we are working towards finding more sustainable sources to eliminate the disposal of these plastics in the garbage.
​
NOTE: This information has been written based on the guidelines in our beautiful city of Hamilton, Ontario. Recycling regulations vary by municipality, so be sure to double check with your city!
