Soggy is not a problem.Recycling paper involves wetting it to loose the fibres and then reforming it. It's how paper is made.

It is when you're trying to suck a thick milkshake through one, though...
But usually paper and cardboard that has been in contact with food is not recyclable because it contaminates the batch. That's why pizza boxes also cannot go into the cardboard/paper fraction.
No, that's because pizza boxes are contaminated with fat. That messes up the paper recycling process. Water is fine.
Man, if that's the problem then I can only assume any fast food box is not recyclable too?
