It's a little misleading to call these an "Alternative for Plastic Plates" because they are made of plastic. The hydrocarbons in this case come from chemically processing wheat straw instead of petrochemical products but the end result is still plastic, so if you are worried about microplastics, look elsewhere. Having said that, they work well as reusable kids plates for our 3 and 7 year old. They are a good size and the ~1" lip is a good depth to allow kids to scoop food against the edges without losing it onto the table. We've been running them almost exclusively in the bottom rack of the dishwasher for almost 2 years without issues with them warping or changing color. The one issue with using the dishwasher is that because the plates are made of plastic (in particular a matte plastic, not a shiny plastic), oils from foods like to stick to them more than ceramic or glass plates. Therefore, I find I need to hand scrub them with dish soap and a brush before putting them in the dishwasher if the meal had a moderate amount of oil in it. Maybe this isn't an issue for some dishwashers or dishwasher soaps but for our efficient, quite KitchenAid dishwasher it does seem to be necessary after some meals.
After accidentally dropping and breaking several glass cups, I knew it was time to finally move on to something a bit more durable! Well, I finally found what I was looking for. I absolutely love the colors and how vibrant they are. They hold ice and cold drinks extremely well with no condensation on the outside. I have already washed them in the dishwasher multiple times with no issues. I’m so excited to use them on my patio this summer.
