Edible Plates from Taiwan

YUM! A cookie plate, now you've sparked my interests here. that sounds delish, I have seen them and now want to make them too one day. Edible spoons I have seen too, some of them made out of pure chocolate for the holidays. Edible sandwhich wrap too? How convenient. Maybe it's made out of rice paper?

Well it would solve the problem of having to was to many plates if anything. I might try one small plate or bowl if they have one. An entire plate might be too much. I'd have to give it to the bids here outside. I would prefer bread myself.

Have you seen The View? Elisabeth Hasselback, or beck, I don't know for certain how to spell her last name. She has celiac disease.

Oh that sounds so yummy, I have never experienced that. Gluten does have some negative effects on some people with siliac disease.

I think the 'wheat' plate play a more useful function in certain culture and in certain country. Taiwainese may have trouble in dealing with their daily cleaning chorus on their ceramic/China made food plates, and finding it hard to dispose all their used polyurethane foam plates in their tiny island without hurting their environment, so 'wheat' plate come in handy for them, and also, they may not be too concern about food cleanliness and the taste of a tainted 'wheat' plate at all. So it make sense for them to try it and then use it in the long run.

Maybe if you were realllly hungry you might try it. It's kind of gluttonous if you think about it too, huh? Eating the whole meal and the plate too? Haha. Funny.I agree why would you want a plain taste of wheat after eating, maybe it was a bad idea. Just something fun and nothing truely that functional.

Those all are good points, never thought of that. I think they would then be happy to create a dish that could be eaten along with their meal. Bravo! YOu finally made me realize why they would do such a thing as make an edible plate in the first place.

That sounds pretty and interesting. I just worry about how the bottom of the plate will be, meticulous as it sounds. I am concerned about how they will go over on a dirty table or counter, hmmm.

Well, the problem of disposable utensils leaving a waste would be no more, but we would still have increased obesity to worry about. Almost 30% of the US population is obese, and I don't think turning wrappers into food would be helpful to that problem. Imma stick with biodegradeable wrappings and utensils.

If the plates were only ten calories I wouldn't mind but if they were an added 120+ then it could be a problem, I agree. This would only be a once in awhile thing anyways. Thanks for responding!

I try almost anything once, and if i don't like it then i won't eat it again and then they will loose the idea on it and not make them anymore. It's how all fads do their business for a while and then stop.

Now that would be something wouldn't it? I wonder how they would accomplish this, as the food itself has to be held somewhere too before you eat it. Perhaps you can eat the plate while you're eating the rest of the food as well so it's not a balancing act.

You are the prepared one bringing your own placemat and towel for it to be placed on. I like that idea. The food might still keep it's warmth on the wheat even moreso that on a regular plate, who knows. I would think a soup bowl made of wheat might be to weak to hold the hot soup, but who knows how they make those things. I just wanna se a picture of it.

I can imagine the costs now that you mention it. It could be difficult to make them, more harder than I thought and that is why the price is so high? Not sure.

Chocolate plates would be interesting and simple to make really if you have the right tools. I have seen smaller kinds of things made with chocolate so why not a plate mold and made into a plate too. I think romantic times might be had then.

I think it would be cool to have the edible fork and spoon as well. Why not the entire table, even the chairs. Ha, now I'm getting carried away wheat it all.
