These paper plates are super easy to use. Just take one out of the pack and you're ready to serve your appetizers or salads. When you're done, simply throw them away - no need for any cleaning! Remember, these plates are not safe for the microwave or dishwasher, so don't put them in there. To keep them in good condition, store them in a dry place. They're already durable, but avoiding excessive bending or crushing will make sure they stay that way. Enjoy using these plates for your special events!
