You can find disposable plates made from palm leaf, bamboo, banana leaf, sugar cane and “corn plastic,” but some of these products are only compostable in commercial facilities. Biotrem tableware, made from 100 percent, certified organic, GMO-free wheat bran, is fully biodegradable within 30 days even in a backyard composter. Made in Poland, the tableware goes through a production process that does not require significant amounts of water, mineral resources or chemical compounds, says Roberto Cavallini of VERI Foods in Coconut Grove.
