Black is going out of fashion at Toronto coffee shops, at least when it comes to the lids. On Monday, Dark Horse Espresso, a Toronto-based cafe, decided to switch the colour of its coffee lids from black to red. Black plastics are considered unrecyclable in Toronto, and the City advises people to throw black plastic in the garbage. “I had no idea that black plastic isn’t recyclable in Toronto,” Sarah Israel, a Toronto resident tweeted. “Why are black coffee cup lids even allowed if they’re not recyclable?” she tweeted.
