Our products can be used safely in a microwave for reheating food. However, the capabilities of the microwave, the type of food and reheating practices all vary, so we do not make any specific guarantees about the use of our plates and bowls in the microwave. We advise using caution when reheating in a microwave and to always follow the microwave manufacturer's directions.
Dixie Plates and Bowls
Most plastic wraps are now required to meet strict FDA standards for safe use in a microwave. Be sure to check that your plastic wrap container states that it is "microwave safe." Because microwaves heat food faster than plastic, make sure to leave space between the plastic wrap and food to prevent the wrap from melting. If you are concerned about using plastic wrap in the microwave, try using a paper towel to prevent splatter and contain moisture without the risk of melting.
Dixie plates may be recycled when clean and dry. So, when deciding whether to recycle or toss, remember—if you ate a dry, mess-free meal like a quick sandwich and chips, just dust off those crumbs and dispose of the plate in the recycling bin. If you ate a messy, saucy meal that left grease stains on the plate, then dispose of it in the trash. Be sure to check acceptance with your local recycling program.
