Food residue has become one of the most debated challenges in food packaging recycling. Everyday items—such as peanut butter jars, ice cream tubs, beverage cups, and pizza boxes—are made from valuable materials with strong potential for recovery and reuse. Yet questions remain about how these materials actually perform once they enter the recycling stream. Bringing together insights from across the value chain, the session will challenge common assumptions, explore current system capabilities, and consider whether it is time to rethink the food residue narrative.
