You've just inherited a manufacturing plant that specializes in plastics. What are you going to make?

I would make plastic tablecloths, with this particular plasticky smell, because the remind me of my grandmother and setting her table and for some reason plastic tablecloths were part of a nourishing bitter sweet ritual. She taught me the names of colors in her kitchen using all sorts of different plastic kitchen stuff.
