More restaurants need to do this. The wife and I were able to dump out our excess h20 into the plant instead of leaving it to be dumped in the restaurant toilet

The plants are going to die.
Water doesn't get dumped in the toilet, dumped in the sink.
This is a dumb idea
That plant is going to be done within a week
This is a stupid ass post

lol that's exactly what happened at a place I worked. plants started dying from overwatering, then people watered them even MORE because they looked sad

I appreciate the intent and agree there should be more sustainable ways of handling water that isn’t going to be drank.

Usually it gets treated at a water treatment plant and recycled into municipal water supply. It’s the food waste that’s more of a problem.

I wish people would stop default ordering water "for the table." 90% of it goes untouched.

Same. That’s why I love this.

You know what they say about assuming

I didn’t assume and literally asked if you asked or not, dingus.

lol, you think rainwater doesn’t have traces of bird poop in it? Oh no my lips! Quit your pear clutching. lol.

Lol there's no way you can convince me that it's sanitary, and just wait until kids start pouring their Pepsi and sprite into the plants because mom and dad did it.
It's great that people are trying their best to be environmentally friendly and make a difference, but there are far more impactful ways to do that.

Plants don't care about sanitary

If you can't understand how other peoples bodily fluids and bacteria can transfer from that plant to the table (tables can be cleaned and sanitized, and are USUALLY an NSF product) to the next people who sit at the table which hopefully is being cleaned after each seating, but that cleaning is essentially useless since there's a plant that's not an NSF product on a table inside a likely non NSF plant pot, that definitely isn't being cleaned after each seating.....
Ya know what, never mind, if you can't see how that's gross then maybe I'm wasting my breath and time even typing this lol

I'll assume the guy who is so agast at people dumping water down the drain they want to thoughtlessly kill plants instead meant "pearl clutching."
