Marx Foods was kind enough to send me a dozen of their Eco-friendly Palm Leaf Plates to try. I choose the rectangle ones because I thought they would be great for a BBQ. I decided to try them the other night with my Teriyaki chicken, grilled pineapple, and fresh corn on the cob. I felt like I should put on a lei and some tropical music.
I really liked how nice and sturdy these plates are and their raised sides. They are biodegradable plates and a renewable resource. "Naturally discarded sheaths of the leaves of the Adaka palm tree are collected from the forest floor. No trees are cut down." The rectangle plates were a bit smaller than I had imagined, perhaps better suited to a fun Asian meal than a BBQ. Next time I'll have to use the large square palm leaf plates for a BBQ.

Love the eco- friendly plates. I used eco friendly cupckae liners that I found. Its the little things that make a difference.
These plates are so neat!
Awesome! These sounds great and they also look really cute! I love the picture you did of them, too. I'm so impressed, Barbara--people sending you things to try. That's seriously quite an accomplishment. Good job!
Very cool plates!!! How did you get them to send you some? I want some too!!
The rectangular shape and high sides are a super idea, I think. Eco friendly is THE way to go. We have to take care of our planet and this is a good step. Well done, Barbara!
Lucky u Barabara,beautiful plate...
These plates are great. I'm 100% in favor of using biodegradable paper products. Perfect for a BBQ.
They look very nice...I would love some too!
Very cool plates! Nice for company and better for the environment!
Finally! A plate Ben can't break!
Nice plates, I'll have to look for these :-)
ooh, cool looking plates. I'll have to keep my eye out for those.
love those eco friendly plates! I am always on the lookout for stuff like that - I'll have to keep my eyes out for them!
Great plates, but what's that on the plate! YUM!
They are so nice - you could pass them off as real.
When I saw this picture, the first thing that I had on my head was: This sweet corn looks really yummy!
Perfect dish!
Wow, those are very cool! I always feel guilty using regular paper plates at a bbq.
Gorgeous and eco-friendly...how awesome! :)
I definitely need to pick up some of those plates! I need to try and focus more on saving our environment! I admit, I haven't done a good job of it.
That said, that is some beautiful corn, and what a great dish to serve on those plates. Teryaki Chicken, corn and pineapple a la biodegradable..love it! :)
Great plates!
(And the food looks very appetizing!)
I saw in my email that Marx foods was doing a giveaway of the palm plates!
I've used the bamboo plates for parties- they're expensive, but so cute. These look great too!
