Single-use soy sauce fish are now banned in South Australia.
The state is slowly phasing out single-use plastics.
While the fish are made from a type of plastic that can be recycled, “their fiddly size makes [this] almost impossible,” according to Adelaide Hills Council.
The ban also includes plastic straws attached to food or drink products, e.g. on juice boxes/poppers.
