I think they are confusing I'm not an authority on the subject of recycling [we do it to an extreme where I live, and I'm glad we do], but I think that the word you want might be organic.

Snowandcloud: Are you saying that you think 'recycled' is a good replacement for 'recyclable' and that 'organic' is a good replacement for 'non-recyclable'? They are not.

What do you find confusing about the original labels?
