I use foam plates not paper, but I guess it is all the same.

Sometimes, but rarely. I generally use them when I have excess left over from things like barbecue, but do not make a point to spend money on them for every day use.

 :thumbsup: Paper plates all the way - we stay so busy and it makes it so easy to toss the paper plates.  We use "regular" plates if its food that would not work well on a paper plate.

I use real plates.  The paper ones are expensive to use once and throw away plus it clutters the landfills.

I have used paper plates at home because of being buzy-buzy, and can't clean.

I don't use paper plates because of the cost.  It would be nice to discard instead of washing dishes though  ;D

I can't remember the last time I used paper plates at home. It seems just as easy to throw them in the dishwasher.
Now that I think of it, The last time we used paper plates was several years ago when we remodeled the kitchen. We didn't have dishwasher or a sink for a while.

Yes only when we are having a party because then we don't have to do dishes. All the other time I use regular plates.

I do not use paper plates to speak of. If I have a bbq for the family , then out some the heavy duty paper plates. I neve use foam as they are not biodegradable . Too me it is a waste of money. Now my dad who lives alone uses paperplates. But oh well he is old and does not like to do a lot of dishes.

I use paper plates when I am having a party only. I do not let children from my party to use ceramics plates.

I only use paper plates when I have cookouts, but for everyday eating I use regular plates.
