Potato Plates
If you’re looking for an earth-friendly paper plate alternative for your picnics and BBQs, take a look at these biodegradable Potato Paks. They’re made in New Zealand from the starch that comes from the water during the potato washing and cutting process, before the spuds are turned into french fries. That dried starch is then molded and “cooked” into all sorts of plates, trays and bowls. The company says there’s very little waste involved, and the waste that is produced goes to the local pig farmer. I just love a company who helps out the local pig farmer! They also make wooden cutlery sets, to complete your plastic-free picnic.
$7.50 for 25 Plain Narrow Trays at potatoplates.com
$4.00 for package of 5 cutlery sets at potatoplates.com
