Hi Lilly, I would be interested in this too. I have tried a couple of samples of bio-degrade but nothing my kitchen staff would get behind.

Does anyone have specific products to recommend for school lunch trays that are not made of styrofoam? I'm working with the leadership at Ferndale Public Schools to transition away from the current styrofoam trays, and they're asking for specific suggestions (name of product or link to product) of what kinds of trays other districts are using.
Do districts ever join forces to purchase items like this together in larger bulk to access better prices?
Thank you!Lilly--
