Don't buy walmarts generic with the lip. They stink like chemicals that probably go into your food and people's fingers will poke through them. Corelle white plates, rubbermaid food storage or thrift store ones are better for your money.
Resorting to gimmicks cause they got nuthin left
Bern pretty happy with members mark 204 countI believe is chiney rebounded, 10inch for 20 dollars delivered
Now what about disposable straws, especially paper ones?
I'd like to see those tested out.
You skipped all the other plates
Seriously, who goes around holding a loaded paper plate that way? As long as the plate is reasonably moisture resistant, it's good enough for me.
very useful information … my favorite part was 1:02 😆
Glad to see the sugar cane growers have found a use for the tons of bagasse pulp leftover from processing the sugar cane stalks. When I was a kid in South Florida, the sugar mill that operated in the county where I lived would just stack it in huge piles outside of the mill and had to keep water running on it 24/7 to prevent combustion fires from starting
Now I know who paid the salaries to these two fellows…
This is so dumb. You double or triple up the plates and when done throw out the dirty plate and return the others to the stack.
No plastic or styrofoam, thanks. Not recycle able or compostable.
Thanks for the test . I'll buy hefty .🙂
You need a one and two handed test
Haha dorm test
Bridget she is a chump
why do Americans use paper plates at home instead of normal plates
OR
Just stack two or more plates together. I've found that holds up for just about anything you put on the plate. 1 Plate to hold the food + 1 (or more) Plate underneath for structural integrity..
I was watching on TV and wanted to make a positive comment on Bridget's makeup. I don't usually notice makeup but that contrast with the poncho!
It is so subtle. I don't have her coloring but I would like that makeup. Kudos. Congrats to her makeup artist, even if it is her.
Never use styrofoam in the microwave. Paper is ok. Don’t know how safe the bagass is.
Disposable plates are terrible!!! ATK should not encourage to use them… :-/
Hard pass on disposable plates.
Super wasteful.
