[Vocabulary] vegetable glasses

[atabitaraf]

Which word is used for the glasses/plates made of vegetable/plants? I'm actually looking for a more usual word in speaking/writing.

Some words I see:
1. vegetable glasses
2. biodegradable glasses
3. biodegradable disposable glasses

Thank you

Are you talking about wooden glasses/plates?

You're probably thinking of biodegradable cups. Although we may refer to drinking vessels that aren't glass as "glasses", the term sounds odd here.

Cardboard or paper?

 

[GoesStation]

Biodegradable cups are made from various materials which can break down after use more than conventional plastics do. Googling tells me not everyone agrees that they're as environmentally benign as their manufacturers may claim.
