I think we need a new term to distinguish "Compostable in an industrial composting facility" vs. "Toss this in the average at-home compost bin".

It's hard to tell with any given product, and most manufacturers in the former category are more than happy to coyly suggest the latter. Not saying anything about this particular product, but it's a thing I've been noticing more.



This is a problem across the entire composting and recycling ecosystem.
