ECO SOUL 100% Compostable Wooden Cutlery Set – 175 Pcs [75 Forks, 50 Knives, 50 Spoons] Eco-Friendly Disposable Birchwood Utensils Set – Biodegradable Flatware for Parties, Weddings, Camping & Picnic

Great for picnics

I brought these camping. At first, the kids were confused by them, but then they were completely on board. They work well, and are comfortable to use. Best of all, they will clearly biodegrade easily and are of bamboo which is a great resource for something like this. We don't use disposable items often. This is one I won't have any guilt using. No plastic, made of sustainable materials, and even if tossed on the ground it would degrade. Thumbs up. They are shaped somewhat flatter than I expected, but still worked fine regardless.

These are great if you need natural utensils for a party. The value for the price is unmatched. The obvious limitation on all of these utensils no matter the brand is that the fork and spoon are very shallow, almost flat, and will not do well with soups or anything liquid because they just don't have much volume. Strength is limited for any natural utensil. The forks and knives worked great for our pulled pork and cake and beans and rice but would not work for cutting chicken, for example. However, the theme was more important than perfect utility so we go them and were very happy. Be very careful with brands made in China as some other brands people complained of chemical smells, and that set off an alarm for me since these are not subject to any safety testing. These did not smell like chemicals at all.The last thing is that the knife was not as shown in the pic, the pic shows a knife with a beveled edge and very distinct teeth. In reality the knife was flat without any bevel and the serrated edge was pretty low teeth that were not always well defined. Again, we had pulled pork so that wasn't a concern at all.

Keep in mind, the utinsil holder is not part of the pkg. Utinsils look smaller than thought, more for kids not adults. Forksmay not work that well. We will see in a few days.

These were not what I hoped for. They are basically thin popsicle sticks. The spoons have no bowl that could actually contain liquid. The fork tines are maybe a third the length of a regular tine, which is good in that they would snap if you tried to stab into anything. They also have that wood flavor of a popsicle stick, which isn't terrible, but not something you want in a lot of dishes. Will not buy again.

Took a minute to get used to using them. Everything was flat. Spoons took the most to try and get used to. Definitely a Conversation starter! I wrapped all my silverware in Buffalo check napkins and used twine for the bow to hold everything together. Added to the theme of my Bonfire Party!! Would order again!

Would not purchase again. Tines on forks have occasional splinters. Spoons have very little curved shape. Don't plan on eating cereal or soup with them. Serrations on knives have only minimum cutting power. They are some kind of machine cut item on fairly thin wood. When using knife and fork to cut warmed left over pizza slice, fork literally broke in half at the neck. They are wood so they are compostable but that alone does not carry the day on this product. I plan to dispose of them to get the composting underway as soon as possible. I will keep searching for a better alternative.

We first saw bamboo cutlery on our flights overseas. Although we don’t use disposable cutlery often, I’m glad to have this instead of plastic when we do. The spoons don’t have much of a bowl, so don’t plan to use them for soup or cold cereal.
