Roundup: Picnic Plateware


The round up of picnic place settings in today’s Los Angeles Times puts your old paper plates to shame. Check out their picks here:

+ Above: The Snap-A-Party sets by Fred are $12 for a set of four.


+ Preserve plates and cups by Recycline are made of recycled plastic, with 10 tumblers selling for $3.99.


+ A set of eight bamboo Veneerware plates by Bambu sell for $7.95, while a 24-piece set of flatware is $7.99.


+ These melamine dishes (large $2, small $1.25) by Pier 1 are shaped like the paper plates of yore.

    can we find any more crap to fill up our landfills? Yes, as a matter of fact we can: Lets put frames around plastic plates and forks and knives because it's so hard to set them out individually.
