To use these plates, simply take one out of the pack and place your food on it. After your party or meal, since they're disposable, you can just throw them away, which saves you the hassle of washing. Make sure not to put them in the microwave or dishwasher as they're not designed for that. Store them in a cool, dry place to keep them in good condition. With their sturdy construction, you can enjoy your food without worrying about the plate breaking.
