>my face

Admittedly, I have cheap plastic plates, but I "inherited" them from my old roommates. I didn't own my own plates before that.

I DO own real glasses, though said roommates broke a few of them, the bastards. But many of my glasses I made myself. :3

i put a paper plate/bowl on top of a styrofoam plate/bowl for strength and use a plastic fork, knife and spoon for every meal

nothing wrong with paper plates for a frozen burrito or some shit

but if spending more than 2 minutes making a meal i'll use actual dishes

i have an entire set of blue Courier and Ives dishes and an entire set of green Courier and Ives dishes

pic was googled since i'm at work

The usual eclectic mix of completely unmatched glass/ceramic common for a student.

Eating alone - use everything disposable.
Eating with anyone else - use proper utensils and containers for food.

Washing shit for 1 person feels like such a waste of time. Same with cooking for myself.

I never use disposables when at home, and I don't know anyone who does. What the fuck is wrong with the people you know?

>Even children don't need plastic "sippy" cups. All they need is someone to teach them not to break shit.


Do you have any children?

I use plastic forks cus
GODDAMNIT WHERE DID ALL MY FUCKING FORKS GO?!
WHERE?!
JESUS I HAVE LIKE 4 LEFT!

I blame America and it's throw-away culture.

Paper plates and that shit was never a good idea because hardly anyone recycles, plus more durable dishes don't need to be tossed out or recycled.

>>1932795
Yes.

>>1932802
try cleaning your pig sty

paper is biodegradeable, so whats the problem?

well i cook all my meals so i generally have A LOT of dishes to do
paper plates are easy, but you can only use them for simple stuff like pizza or anything that won't break out of the bottom
now styofoam BOWLS on the otherhand, that's just stupid...
unless, of course, you're throwing a jambalaya/gumbo festival and you dont want to wash a hundred thousand dishes

>>1932807
No you dont fucking do. Children do need to be taught not to break shit but until certain age they do not have the motor skills to avoid that. Just like you cant expect them not to shit themseves and articulate their wishes with fully formed sentenses until a certain age, you stupid faggot.

Do people actually use paper plates for every day meals? They're very convenient if you have a big party and are serving food buffet style, so people can just grab a plate and load up, and there's no need to do washing up in the middle of the event for fear of running out of plates, but who the fuck would actually use them to eat from? It seems like a complete waste of money.

>>1932772

>>1932809
Why don't you take in all the biodegradable wastes there is and let it sit in your backyard?

Degradable things takes time, a lot of time, to break down. And everyday there is more to toss away. Where are you going to put the new stuff?

>>1932811
I never had a sippy cup as a child, I had bottles until I was two and then it was on to glasses with straws in. So don't spread your stupid, American, child ass licking shit around, if you assholes weren't so afraid of your kids hating you and disciplined them, they wouldn't need sippy cups and would know to be careful with glassware and not fucking drop it off their tables to see what happens.

>>1932821
>had bottles till two

>>1932809
Yes, it is. However, you must process the original to make the plate. That requires trees or recycled paper. The process itself requires energy and causes it's own pollution. Taking that plate and recycling it causes even more pollution. A porcelain plate only uses energy and makes pollution once when it is first created after that it lasts several million paper plate life times. Energy spent and pollution created each time washing that plate is actually far less than what is created from the paper plate during it's life time.

I use syrofoam plates for every meal and I double up on them for everything but sandwiches. I also use plasticware - always. I choose plastic over paper at the grocer's. I don't recycle anything, I dump my used motor oil in a field not far from work and I burn tires in a bon fire out back. I don't give a fuck about the environment. And I try to be even more wasteful whenever self righteous and preachy environmentalists spout their crap.

Go fuck yourself.

>>1932838
They actually give you a choice between paper or plastic? I haven't seen a grocery store outside the movies do that, ever. Not even the hippy whole foods type stores around here ask, just dump your shit in plastic bags.

why so mad? Its just paper. yo

My mom ran a daycare, so there was always a ton of plastic plates with sections and sippy cups. It was just easier that way when she had to look after eight kids.

Definitely used normal cups after bottles. Well, they were still plastic, but no straw, and they weren't throw-away ones.

I couldn't use normal paper plates. The way they get soggy so fast is gross and you always have to use more than one at a time. Maybe if I have a ton of people over, I'll use the thicker ones. But I just live with my husband and we really don't need more than our set of six large plates and six small plates in our cabinets.

I did have to buy a lot more glassware because of the large amounts of alcohol my friends bring over though. I have two tall glass sets, a set of shorter glasses, shot glasses, wine glasses, and martini glasses.

>>1932838

I don't care about the environment either. I use glass glasses & porcelain plates because they're CHEAPER than disposable. They also work better--you don't have to worry about them melting in the microwave, accidentally cutting through them, or having them bend and spill food.

Seriously, you can get glasses (real glass ones) from Wal-Mart for less than $1 each. Ditto for simple porcelain plates. They will last pretty much forever. You'd spend more than that on disposables in only a month or so.

ceramics or chinadishes.
most of the stuff is made by my parents who are potters, fuck yeah!

>>1932856
Fuck yeah! I have some of my own (kinda crappy) ceramic mugs and shit. Shit's so cash.

>>1932821
You live in a third world cuntry

anything made out of corelle is usually pretty good. pretty much impossible to break unless you're actually trying to

if we go down the environmental route we have to weigh the costs of making paper plates from sustainable forests and associated transport costs against the cost of water usage for washing dishes and cutlery.
Plastics knives and forks can be easily recycled as well as paper plates, however i dont think styrofoam can currently be recycled.

Either way it would be better to just nnot eat, drink or breathe and simply die out

No class? Paper plates, plastic ware, and take out? Filthy America pigs?

Check, check, check, check, and double check.

These are photos of a renter's apartment after they left and AFTER 30 bags of trash were already removed. 28 more bags of trash were removed after these pics were taken. The renters were 30+ years old and had like 10 Guitar Hero guitars they left behind because none of them worked anymore.

The bottom 2 pics are the kitchen, the rest are of one bedroom. The entire house looked like this. There were two stacks of pizza boxes about chin high in one of the rooms. Take out boxes fill most of the trash bags you see in the kitchen under the mattress.

We took tons of pics and documented the cost of the cleanup which took 3 people about 2 weeks to do. Then we sued the shit out of the previous renter, which is still on-going. While this was one of the extremes, this sort of trash is nearly always what we have to clean up in renters' places. There was only one apartment that was fucking spotless and newly cleaned from ceiling to floor; which is extremely rare.

So, yeah, fuck throw away paper and plastic shit and the people that use them.

>>1932881
Correct about Styrofoam. The energy/pollution of recycling paper plates outweighs the amount of water used to wash non-paper plates. This is especially true when you do a full load of dishes in a newer EnergyStar-rated dishwasher that uses far less water than hand washing and older dishwasher models.

Also, the resulting gray water used in washing dishes is far more easily recycled than recycling paper and plastic.

>>1932908
thanks for that, i wasnt sure how treatment cost of grey water would stack against that of manufacturing+ recycling of paper plates

>>1932853
>I use glass glasses & porcelain plates because they're CHEAPER than disposable.

Best answer yet. You can buy clay fired plates rated as "seconds" 2 for $1 at most dollar stores. It can be reused almost indefinitely and sold to someone else for use. Paper/styrofoam plates cost about $2 per 100 pack, but you need to buy more and more to replace them plus the cost of tossing them out.

Fiestaware. Legit, hands down the best damned table-ware ever invented. Break a dish? No problem! Even if they don't make that exact color anymore, most of the colors work well together, so you can mix and match. We have some nice Mikasa "red" patterned china at my place for 'special occasions' but we've never used it in the year that my wife and I have been married.

As for paper/throw-aways. They have their use. Namely picnics, or at that point in your life where you're sharing an apartment with someone who refuses to do the dishes, so you pack them all away and ration them 1 plate, 1 bowl, 1 cup, and 1 spoon each day. I've never gone through more than a single package of each before they get off their lazy asses and promise to do their dishes.

Recycling and manufacturing uses lots of water that usually isn't recycled itself, usually because it's either contaminated too badly or it's being used in a way that is not reclaimable. However, in most cities, gray water is already recycled back into the city's water system; which includes sink and dishwasher water.

Paper plates are for pussies. Real men eat over the sink or the trashcan...

Food on a stick > plates

>>1932917
>1 plate, 1 bowl, 1 cup, and 1 spoon each day.

I do that sort of thing for myself anyway. I wash things off the instant I'm done eating. It takes all of 1 minute max. The only time stuff stacks up is when guests come over, but things are washed within the next 12 hours anyway or put into the dishwasher until there's enough for a full load since a full load saves money for me.

I use paper plates all the time.

I don't have a dish washer and I have a shitty sink for doing dishes.

I use them when cooking. If I am making soup I will put one out to put cooking utensils like wooden spoons, knives, etc on. I don't want to have to wash the spoon every time I stir the soup, and I don't want to dirty a dish just to use to place spoons and knives on while I cook.

Also, if I need to chop a small onion it's easier to use a paper plate than dirty a cutting board since cutting boards are fairly tedious to clean without a dish washer.

I've never used a disposable dish in my house since I moved out. I do have a small bag of plasticware I got from who-knows-where that I keep around "for emergencies" or something. It's just better to have them than throw them out, I guess. Also, on the rare occasion I buy a coffee while I'm out, I wash and reuse the cups. I have plenty of glassware and mugs but I just don't like throwing them out until they wear out.

>>1932813

eating toast of a paper plate right now. I'll reuse the plate too since it's just bread crumbs.

I also find small disposable plastic cups, like the kind taco places give you for salsa, are pretty handy to have around for sauces, dipping, sampling items I'm cooking, etc...

For the record I was raised in cloth diapers in a house that never had paper plates, or paper towels, or seran wrap, or plastic bags for sandwiches, etc... even foil which was very rarely used for cooking was washed and reused. We did buy toilet paper though. That household had a dishwasher though, and that makes a huge difference.

>I don't have a dish washer and I have a shitty sink for doing dishes.

Oh please. I should take a pic of my sink with a ruler next to it. I'd never seen such a ridiculously small kitchen sink before I moved here. I can't even lay a plate on the bottom, it has to be tilted and on the diagonal just to rinse it off. Buy a wash basin/strainer combo at the dollar store or Walmart for like $3 and do your washing in that, lazy fuck.

Even if you dont have a (energy star) dishwasher or a good sink there is still a effective method of washing dishes in lieu of throwing away trash.

Put dirty dishes on the side.
Fill one side of sink partly full with water and some detergent
Fill other side of sink with clean water

Rinse in detergent water, scrub with sponge, dip into clean water, rack it up.

IONO, washing for one person is easy. Assembly line is effective for lots of dishes after a party or something

>>1932994
Not detergent, I meant dishwashing liquid.

Not that it would be a problem because yall are smart enough to figure out what I meant.

Disposables are only good for cookouts or if you're having major repair work done to the house and have no way to access the sink or dishwasher.

Hey retards, you can't recycle paper goods that have food contamination on them. At your friendly neighborhood recycling plant, there are people standing in a line hand-picking out all your grease and cheese stained paper plates and pizza boxes, and throwing them away. GJ, guys.

If you must use paper plates the best thing to do would be to get some that biodegrade quickly and/or are made from recycled materials.

Also, in terms of saving money and resources: for god's sake, CRAIGSLIST. I got 100% of my flatware and utensils from Craigslist, yard sales, thrift shops, and flea markets (including a 5-piece stainless Williams Sonoma spoon/spatula set for $5, fuck yeah), meaning there were no new resources being used so I could get some dinnerware.

>>1933005
I use stainless steel for those occasions. I have a portable wash basin. It's not rocket science.

>>1932994
Not true. I was listening to NPR about 2 years about about a study on new dishwashers versus hand washing using the method you describe. It turns out that the newer dishwashers use less water than a sinkfull of water for both cleaning and rinsing.

>>1933014
Are you kidding? I have a stainless steel double sink in my house I got for free. I have another I need to install in another part of my house that I also got for free. I've only ever seen a single basin sink in bathrooms.

>>1933028
True. I use paper for growing pearl oyster mushroom. I tried using paper plates and pizza boxes but the fungi wont' touch the greasy stuff. So, I stick to using shredded office papers and coffee grounds.

>>1933036
>I use stainless steel for those occasions. I have a portable wash basin. It's not rocket science.

Good for you but not all of us have an extra basin. Sometimes the goddamn water gets shut off for a week or two and you have no access period. Can't use the toilet, either.

>>1933052
Um, buy one? A plastic basin costs less than a pack of paper plates. Also, pay your utilities.

I save all my old pizza boxes and cut them into smaller plates.

>>1933052
>I have a portable wash basin

It's just a big bowl I pour water into.

>>1933055
I made a solar cooker out of some one time to cook a frozen pizza. It worked. But, I tossed it since it looked butt-ugly.

>>1933052
>Sometimes the goddamn water gets shut off for a week or two and you have no access period. Can't use the toilet, either.

lol 4chan

I use ceramic and china dishes and silverware and all that jazz. Only really use paper plates and plastic utensils for big, non-fancy get-togethers.

I didn't know it was common to use paper plates everyday, but I could understand plastic plates and glasses. They can still look nice, and not be easily broken by someone being clumsy.

I usually eat out of the pan I cooked stuff in, because i'm ghetto and hate doing the dishes.

>>1932809

But the trash bag you throw it into is not.

Jesus fucking Christ, are you just not aware that garbage thrown in a landfill is garbage that won't break down?

>>1933107
No fucking shit.

There's also a lot of shit that the recycling centers won't take. They won't take a lot of containers even if you clean the living hell out of them.

I used to bring out the paper plates and shit when having a party or when camping. Now I actually spent some extra money for actual dishes and shit to use. Since then parties seem to go a little better and I get a lot of compliments on the new stuff.

I never got that with paper plates. The metal utensils and ceramic/porcelain really does go a long long way to adding some semblance of class to a party of any kind. It's also infectious. Other people that throw parties that went to mine also made the switch after they saw how well things went at my parties.

in my home, from my childhood, i saw only cremic, bonechina and glass ware. my father and mother were against plastic ware for food. that's why at the early age me and my siblings learn how not to break plates or glasses (though, our parents never beated or yelled if break anything. they are like if its broken then its okay because yelling won't bring it back).

as i grow up, i am still using cremic and glass ware. i don't hate plastic ware but i don't use them. it's like i have fear that plastic will kill me. but i just don't have taste for plastic or paper plates/cups etc.

when i went to rural slavic areas and had dinners with large families, no one ever used toss out stuff and nearly everyone except the men helped with dishes

I hate to tell you this, but...

I only use styrofoam if it's given to me at a restaurant, I use paper plates sparingly at home and always reuse them, they're for things like sandwiches and chips, you know, things that would barely get a regular plate dirty. but like I said, I always reuse them.
I'll also be taking some camping with me this week since it'll be enough of a hassle to wash my cast iron cookware while I'm out.

>>1932802

I think I found your problem. But, i know what you mean. You simply need the right tools for proper and easy cleaning. A long handle plastic bristle cleaning brush and a wash basin are all you really need. I normally bring my 3-gallon stainless steel stock pots camping with me. They serve as packing crates and I use them to wash dishes and laundry in them. They were $12 at a dollar store and work great.

Everything we have created would rot away in a matter of moments, in the span of Earth's full time, if we disappeared right now completely. In less that 500,000 years there's be almost nothing left to recognize as being human made. Nature would completely heal in far less time.

I can't imagine carting a shit load of paper plates with me everywhere I go camping when I can have some thin stainless steel dinner ware that I can reuse. I'm not talking about weekend trips to the park, I mean hiking and backpacking for 2-3 weeks in the mountains. A stack of paper plates is bulkier and heavier than the stainless steel stuff.

Yeah, same. The hippy stores usually ask, but everyone else just assumes plastic.

The thing is, I actually like paper sacks, but I have asperger's so I just take whatever they give me.

I use the paper ones for using under mulch in my garden. I can use half the amount of mulch that way. However, no one carries paper bags anymore at all. So, I use the plastic ones for miscellaneous chores and as liners for small waste cans. Or, I use them at Aldi's stores.

1.Already told you were not eternal "LERN TO REED".
2.I already said I want the world to collapse, and If you're gonna tell me I have issues as your last defense, you are fucking stupid. That has no say in this, we are using facts.
3. Mexico has two gulfs, a large one and a pussy-ass miniature golf gulf used by corporate executive to vacation. If you think the situation is fucked it is because yo have never walked the streets of Mexico. You would shut the fuck up about your ridiculous paper-plastic babble once you saw how bad it is there. No medical care, expensive ass meds, people living in shacks everywhere once you step out of the main cities, rampant violence, filth unlike any here, gunfights every day in even minor towns, drug trade at its max, and the daily struggle becoming more asphyxiating every day.
Before you tell me how to view the world, you should take a look at the real world, and if I offended you then you needed to be offended so FUCK YOU.

>your last defense

Oh, you were attacking? lol

>we are using facts.

No, no you are not.

Mexico isn't even close to being that bad, unless it changed dramatically since last year. You don't even live there in the first place, kid.

At home for the summer and my parents do this shit. I don't think we even have glasses anymore, just goddamn plastic cups.

Then throw out the crap and wash dishes.

>>1933451
It is pretty obvious.

>>1933510
what is?

>>1933451
Don't "kid" me you twat.
I have lived there, and if I am here it is for other motherfucking reasons.
I know what I am fucking talking about I have lived in and been to many regions in Mexico.
The availability of good cheap technology is one of the reasons I am here, the availability of firearms another. Beyond that I won't say, not that I needed to justify anything to your dumbass. You probably think you know everything cause you went there on a motherfucking vacation. You probably went there with people with money, and the next time you go, I hope you get jacked by the american-resenting residents. You don't know what it's like, so shut the fuck up.

It sounds to me that you've live in Mexico in the poor shit parts because your family was fucking poor shits. People with good money don't leave Mexico. It's the crap that crosses over to the USA.

I go to Mexico every year. I'll be there again this year. And, yes, I stay with people that have money and live nice lives, unlike your family.
