Green Eats 2 Pack Divided Plates, Green



Love. But cheaper at Target

Durable and pretty. I have recently become concerned about feeding my kids on the cheap Ikea plastic ware we have used in the past. It really bothered me and when I saw these dishes available at Target, I decided to start purchasing a couple of pieces each time I was there. We have now converted completely. I have four children and have assigned them each a color which they are always supposed to use. They have 2 of each piece and if it’s dirty, they have to wash it. This has really cut down on the amount of cups they go through in a day and thus, the number of times I am running the dishwasher. Green in more ways than one!


These are cheaper at Target, especially the divided plates. However, I had to buy the green coloered cups and plates on amazon because they were never available at Target. Cost me a total of $6 more for one package of each. ($5 for the plate and $1 for the cups).


And truly, I don’t think it’s wise to microwave anything plastic, even if it…

Practical

Why we like these plates:

-made in the US

-made of recycled plastic that is BPA-free

-the divisions are useful for pureed or finger foods


Why we are unsure if we would get more:

-the two we have are now warped a bit; we are not sure if this was always the case or if the dishwasher did this

-they are not microwave-safe

Love these plates!

This plate is larger than our previous toddler plate (the OXO Tot), and is perfect for moving up to larger portions. We hand wash these, which is super easy because absolutely nothing sticks to them. They don’t even get stained by tomato sauce, which most plastic plates do. We like the divided plate for our 2-year-old because it helps her scoop food more easily than a regular plate. Highly recommend these.
