Forks and spoons made from corn??? Unlike conventional plastic, which is largely made from petroleum, Dandelion feeding items are primarily made of corn bioplastic. No BPA or phthalates, of course.
Using corn to make reusable tableware reduces our dependence on fossil fuels, and on disposable tableware, while still providing that kid-friendly throw-able feature.

Colorful Corn forks and spoons…So Cool!
 
What’s the secret for getting kids to eat? Make it FUN and give your little ones their own special tools! Then add patience and a sense of humor.
 
Dandelion ReUsable feeding items are made from a unique corn (PLA) formula. Sized perfectly for your toddler, Dandelion ReUsables help ease the transition to solid foods and self feeding. Let’s face it. Tots are going to drop a fork or two, so we’ve packed plenty! Spoon is deep bowled (so food will make it all the way to the mouth!) and shaped just right for the unique grasp of a beginner.  Pack includes 4 spoons and 4 forks, so you'll always have a clean one.
 
Spoon & Fork: 5 inches long.
Age: 9 months & up
Hand Wash recommended. DO NOT MICROWAVE.
 
What kind of corn is used to make these utensils? 
The corn used is the most common type grown in the US, primarily used to feed animals and make artificial sweeteners.
 
Why should I choose Dandelion ReUsables?
  • Corn PLA (Polylactic acid) reduces our dependence on fossil fuel resources and generates fewer greenhouse gases than conventional plastic.
  • Corn is an annually renewable and sustainable resource, unlike petroleum.
  • Using lightweight, non-breakable reusable feeding items limits the use of disposable-ware, an essential step toward healthier families and a healthier planet.  Kid-friendly AND eco-friendly!
  • Corn PLA reduces your exposure to the potential toxins in conventional plastic.
  • Corn-based products are biodegradable, unlike conventional plastic
Why can't I put it in the dishwasher?
Dandelion ReUsable tableware is continually being tested for top-rack dishwasher use, and can run through some dishwashers with no problem.  However, because the temperature can vary considerably between dishwashers, Dandelion is concerned about possible distortion under high heat.  Note that although conventional plastics can release toxins under high heat, there are no toxins in the PLA used by Dandelion.
 
Minimal packaging is used on all Dandelion Earth-Friendly Goods, to reduce waste.  Sleeves or cards are made of 100% recycled paperboard and printed with vegetable inks.  Less packaging also means reduced fuel requirements for shipping.
 
Dandelion Earth-Friendly Goods is a division of Re-Think It, an American-owned family business located in Florida.  Through visits to their Asia-based factories and batch testing, Re-Think It ensures that all their products meet the US and European standards for safety.  They are committed to ethical and responsible business practices with a regard for human rights and respect for the environment.  Dandelion is proud to bring natural and organic items within reach of today's family budget.  (Read more about Dandelion Earth-Friendly Goods.)
