Toilet paper and paper towel tubes are okay to give- you don't have to cut
the glued parts off (unless it's like a raised blob of glue) because they
don't actually ingest it. Cereal boxes and the like are fine too.
Some things to avoid are boxes that contained things with strong
odors(coffee, tea), frozen food boxes, and egg cartons.
