I buy foam plates for twice-monthly dinner meetings at a club I belong to. We use about 90/month and have never had any problem. We use the Hefty brand heavy duty ,10 1/4 inch divided plates and buy them in packs of 175 at Costco. Actually though, even when I have used cheaper quality foam plates in the past, I never had a meltdown like what you are describing. |

What happens if you get married, will you wash dishes then? Or do you expect the woman to do the dishes, and since you don't have one of those, you use paper plates? You want to save money?

Did he say he didn't want to do dishes? Because I don't remember reading that. He may have alluded to that, with the comment "Being a bachelor", but nowhere did he say he didn't want to wash dishes. We all assumed that. But nowhere is there any indication that of "exactly why he's using" them. |

Heck, he could live it up and have enough dishes to use them and load into the dishwasher and only run it when it's full. And that's only dealing with the cost/energy/waste issue. I just can't fathom enjoying a meal off of a styrofoam plate.... |

I didn't really get the paper plate/bachelor connection, but I must confess, when I'm alone, it's not unheard of that I will make a sandwich right there on the paper I'm reading. Maybe even eat cold chinese food out of the container. But buy paper plates? Not on your life, except for tailgating, and then I get the Solo plastic (?) ones. Eating from paper or styrofoam plates would give me the willies. You know, like the feeling you get when eating ice cream with those wooden sticks. Sends a shiver up my spine. nancy |

Foam plates melt at about 200 degrees. Taking very hot food from the pan to the plate can be a problem. Once cooled a bit, OK. The oils from cooking can be in the 300 degree range. While it is a very good insulating material, there is a limit to the heat it can take. Spoon some green bean on it, slice some cooked meat, no problem. Fried foods right from the pan, different situation. As for harm, there is none if you ingest the material. It is styrene plastic and inert to the body. I've worked with the material for 34 years and it has not dimiged my brane sells et alll. Ed http://pages.cthome.net/edhome |

I'm tawking a dry sandwich here, not pot roast with gravy... anyone tells me they put out their best china to eat a dawg onna bun or a burger during an outdoor grillin' I call a fibber. I see nothing wrong with eating certain foods off of paper, like why do I need a porcelain dish to eat a slice of pizza, or a ham 'n swiss on rye, and a big heap of steaming hot freedom fries taste a million times better off a cheap paper plate... besides, a freshly peeled off the stack paper plate is far cleaner than any dish fished out of your cupboard. And cheap paper plates are as biodegradeable as paper coffee filters (and those, along with the grounds, go in my composter). Hmm, maybe I'll begin tossing the paper plates into the composter too. ---= BOYCOTT FRENCH--GERMAN (belgium) =--- ---= Move UNITED NATIONS To Paris =--- Sheldon ```````````` "Life would be devoid of all meaning were it without tribulation." |
