Each cup recycled into the bin counts as one vote for either pizza or cheesy chips.

The novel idea is one of several introduced in the city recently in an effort to improve recycling rates in Leeds.

The bins were revealed on Twitter in a post which said: "These #LeedsByExample cup recycling bins are putting the all-important questions to the people of Leeds. So, what do you think? Pizza or cheesy chips?"

It comes as Leeds Council has issued a survey to every resident of Leeds asking for views on recycling in the city.
