When I think of Tim Hortons, I think of how I've seen the disappearance of reusable flatware and cutlery from such a large proportion of eating establishments, and the normalization of eating-in with exclusively single-use disposable stuff (usually plastic), in about two decades. Future generations will thank us /s. But it's those effing 'woke lids' that are the real problem /s. Also, who cares about Tim Hortons if you don't like it; it's not even Canadian. Do conservative voters just need a daily dose of misplaced resentment and rage to keep them going?

I think that is a really American thing though. I have never been to a place that had plastic cutlery and single use flatware. Sure some oprn air kitchens and festivals and such. But there is not really a better option for that

Interesting! Care to provide your province and urban/rural? I live in downtown Toronto and unless there's waiter-to-table service, there's nothing reusable except glassware in bars and potentially plastic cups for free water. Other Torontonians, please chime in if you've seen anything different. Most places don't ask "to stay or to go?" any more, or if they do the only difference is a bag

Ah. Honest mistake on my part. I missed this being a Canadian community. I am from Europe and have only seen plastic dishware and cutlery when I went to the US 2 times.
