Dixie Ultra Platter Disposable Paper Plates, 12.5"x10", Multi-Color, 25 Count

I grabbed these plates for a family barbecue thinking they'd just be “good enough,” but they turned out to be the unsung heroes of the night. Straight out of the packaging, they felt thicker and sturdier than your average disposable plate—not a flimsy edge or wobbly bottom in sight. The oval shape was a game changer: 12.5”x10” is plenty of room for ribs, corn on the cob, and a generous scoop of potato salad without food teetering on the brink. The multi-color design isn't over-the-top but adds just enough pop to make the table look festive without needing extra decor. We even had a few guests comment on how nice they looked compared to plain white plates. Usability-wise, they handled heavy, saucy dishes like kare-kare and pulled pork sandwiches without bending or leaking through, even after a few minutes of chatting before digging in. Comfort might seem like an odd word for a plate, but there's something nice about not worrying it'll collapse mid-bite. Durability was clear when one plate held an overfilled serving of caldereta and survived the trip across the yard without a single spill. These plates work best for outdoor gatherings, potlucks, or any meal where washing a mountain of dishes isn't part of the plan. The best thing about them: they let everyone pile on their favorites without fear, and they look good doing it. For a disposable plate, that's about as good as it gets.
