Peter from Panda is excited to share his recent purchase of biodegradable and compostable plates from enacogoods.com. He picked up a pack of 50 10-inch plates on Amazon and was curious to see how they compared to traditional paper plates. The plates are made from plant fibers, gluten-free, chlorine bleach and dye-free, and claim to degrade over time. Peter tests their durability by placing one in a tub of water for 48 hours, and it holds up well.
Peter notes that the plates have a brownish tint and feel similar to a manila folder. They are stiffer than cheap paper plates but not as sturdy as traditional Chinet plates. They hold up well enough to hold food and resist moisture, but still maintain a degree of flexibility. Peter also acknowledges that it's important to consider the environmental impact of manufacturing these plates, as he can't confirm how they are produced.
Overall, Peter recommends the biodegradable and compostable plates as a more eco-friendly alternative to traditional paper plates. They hold up well enough to use at a barbecue or picnic, and they will eventually degrade over time. While he doesn't know the full extent of their environmental impact, he believes they are a step in the right direction. Camping Checklist #outdoor #plates #camping
