Our Earth’s Natural Alternative 9″ all occasion heavy-duty round plate is made from 100 percent sustainable and renewable natural wheat stalk fiber and bagasse (sugarcane fiber). The material is derived from the plant stalk, not the actual food grains, which are where the proteins and allergens are stored, which makes them by FDA standards gluten-free. They are an environmentally beneficial tree-free alternative to plastic or Styrofoam, which contain non-biodegradable and petroleum derived materials or paper, which manufacturing requires the cutting down of trees. They are compostable in either a industrial compost (1-6 months) or a home compost (up to 12 months). Built sturdy from environmentally beneficial natural, renewable plant fibers, they can be used in the microwave – as they are heat safe up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit – and are oil/liquid and cut resistant. Their natural tan, dye free, bleach free coloring is perfect for any occasion – picnic, barbecue, church luncheons, holiday parties and get togethers, bridal showers, weddings, carnivals, fairs or everyday use. Contains 500 in each case.
Love the concept and feel less guilty So I feel less guilty about killing trees, but let’s face it they are still disposable ð however as a mom of a preschooler and a newborn- momma isn’t spending time washing dishes in my precious minutes of quiet.

Ecologically friendly- sturdy to use Good quality, I waited to review until had used these for a while. It is true that liquids ‘soak into’ the plate. I haven’t had it soak through. The thickness of each plate has thus far stood up to anything I, my family (pets included) have put it through. Teeth marks yes, chewed pieces on floor no. (This means normal use -not a chew toy.) That to me makes it worth while. I wanted something more ecologically friendly and using up chaff from wheat seemed like a great use of normally discarded…
Excellent quality, competitive price. We order these for our company, as an eco-friendly alternative to other paper plates. This is one of the best quality, and the price here on Amazon is comparable or better than I’ve found from other suppliers. We used these recently for a catered dinner, they held up extremely well even with lots of saucey food. Will continue buying!
