[100 COUNT]Harvest Pack 9-inch Round Disposable Compostable Paper Plates, 9″ Heavy-Duty Natural Bagasse Biodegradable Dinner Plate, Made From Eco-Friendly Sugarcane Plant Fibers

We used these plates for a recent brunch for 50 plus people. We had fruit and breakfast tacos, so both sloppy things and hot and cold. The plates held up wonderfully and looked nice, too. They are fairly thick, sort of like Chinet, and equally durable. But the nice thing is that they are not a paper product, so they do not require the use of tree products or the logging of trees, and they are compostable, even when thrown in with regular trash. The composting then takes longer, but they still break down. So their manufacture AND their disposal are more environmentally friendly than the more typical paper products. Because we had so many people, and many were kids, and the event was out of doors, we could not use regular dinner ware, and just wash the items afterwards, which would have been even more toward zero-waste. But using these and compostable cups and flatware at least helped. We also composted all food scraps that were not animal based.This way, we could feel better about the impact of our event.
