Our teammates are trained to professionally clean and sanitize each bowl in accordance with health codes that apply to all types of reusable and dine-in containers.

How does the BringBack Bowl differ from the Just Salad Reusable Bowl?

There are a few differences:

  • BringBack Bowl allows you to place an app order for pickup in a green returnable bowl. You’ll return this bowl when you’re ready to pick up your next order. We’ll take care of the cleaning.
  • The Reusable Bowl applies to orders placed in-store. You'll purchase a bowl at any Just Salad location and receive a free topping (like avocado) with every reuse. This bowl is yours to keep and can only be used in-store.

What are the environmental benefits of the BringBack program?

A third-party lifecycle assessment of the BringBack program, conducted by the New York State Pollution Prevention Institute, concluded that the BringBack bowl has less global warming impacts than a disposable fiber bowl after just two uses, on average. Read the summary findings here.
