Fashion Fierce Eco Dishware
Want a more ecologically version of the paper plate? The answer is probably from a company called Bamboo All Occasion Veneerware. These eating implements, that are made from bamboo stocks, are ideal for indoor and outdoor use. Knives, forks, spoons, plates, and even salad tongues are all made from bamboo in this case.
These are FDA approved. There are also no bleaches or dyes and they degrade completely in four to six months. The most fashion fierce thing about them, aside from the fact that they don’t cause pollution is that they are a nice beige color that is the hue of bamboo. That is also a very chic as light green is very much in style.
The drawbacks of this type of disposable dinnerware are that it really is a lot more expensive than just buying paper plates. They are not reusable and meant to be eaten off of only once. Even the big trays and tongs that are used will collect bacteria so they need to be recycled immediately. They also cannot be used in a microwave.
Still these plates would be a very chic and ecologically correct item to showcase at a celebration as their beige veneer looks a little classier than the usual paper plate. It is just a bit classier.
Lacquered bamboo is similar but more attractive. The line consists of plates, serving platters and bowls. Expect to pay a fair penny for these as the line consists of plates, bowls, serving platters and other tabletop items.
This type of bamboo is costly as each piece must be hand coiled, shaped and then varnished with a food sae natural lacquer. You can have them made in custom colors for an occasion or to gift to a new bride.
The Bamboo Company is considered to be green because their bowls are made by villagers in Vietnam in order to help supplement their farming income. The bowls are also varnished with a natural lacquer that is made from the cashew nut tree and the lacquer is applied using recycled water.
