"I gave a set to all my friends and we are hooked!" -- Woody Harrelson
Cut down on plastic waste with these portable, eco-friendly utensils made with 100% bamboo - a highly durable & sustainable material. Set includes flatware and chopsticks which are heat- and stain-resistant, safe to use on non-stick surfaces and won't impart or absorb flavors. Utensils are hand finished with natural, food-safe wood oil. And, because bamboo is a grass and not a wood, it is anti-microbial by nature.
The carrycase for this utensil set is hand-woven by Karen craftswomen living in refugee camps on the Thai-Burma border. They are part of WEAVE, a women's cooperative that provides education and training to displaced women. Purchases provide much-needed income for the women and their families, contributing to their advancement and empowerment, and making a positive impact on the global community. More on WEAVE below.

Cool Facts
Bamboo is an organic, beautiful & earth-friendly material known for its fast growth cycle and natural strength. Highly adaptable, bamboo can grow almost anywhere and protects the environment by generating more oxygen than other trees. While gaining popularity, bamboo is still mostly an untapped renewable natural resource.
Women’s Education for Advancement and Empowerment (WEAVE) was founded in 1990, with the intent to empower indigenous women and support their needs and basic human rights. WEAVE’s goals are to provide education and training for displaced women and children from Burma and its bordering areas. They aim to foster the development of self-managing and self-sustaining women’s organizations and community-based projects, and to raise the level of awareness of issues affecting displaced women and children from Burma and its bordering areas in partnership with women’s organizations.
WEAVE strives to create a world where empowered women and their children are free to exercise their rights and live peacefully in a just, humane and equitable society.

After reading about these on your website, I purchased a set for myself and two to give as gifts. I am in love! I agree the spoon could be a little deeper - but there's nothing wrong with eating slower :)

I loved the idea of these utensils, and the knife works well for spreading things but it doesn't cut well, and the spoon and fork are a little large for use with most things. I keep them on my desk at work for a nice decoration now, and just bring my own utensils from home for use.

The To-Go Ware bamboo utensil set is brilliant!

The To-Go Ware bamboo utensil set is brilliant! It's far sturdier than the typical take-away plastic stuff, and I like that I'm not cluttering up the world with more plastic. It's also lovely to know that the fabric was woven and the holder made by Burmese refugees wove the holder. Everybody wins with this.

Absolutely wonderful, I use these all the time at work and elsewhere. I purchased two sets and one remains in my vehicle for those times I'm away from home and take-out is on the menu. My friends all love them and want to know where to get a set as well. Absolutely wonderful, and I recommend them to anyone.

This product is fantastic. The design is beautiful but functional. I use the utensil everyday at work. I love it because I can bring my unique style to work while helping the enviroment because I don't use plastic utensils anymore. Also I don't have to worry if the break room is going to have the utnesils I need. I defentily thinks it is worth the money I spent becuase it makes me more 'green' and I always get a compliment everytime I use them.

I bought these for my wife who used to buy plastic utensils to eat her brown-bag lunches. This set of bamboo ones saves money and takes up less space in her desk at work! (Note to those of you who might care, the red fabric is actually more like burgundy, but my wife still loves it.) I also bought her the red Aladdin food container so we won't have to buy plastic sandwich bags and such anymore either.

I wanted to like these, I really did
2 out of 2 customers found this review helpful
I wanted to like these, I really did. While they're certainly attractive, these utensils are not very practical. They are very large and unwieldy. The spoon does not hold much liquid. The knife does not cut very well at all. They are difficult to clean, especially the fork. I may regift these. Instead of purchasing these utensils, I would recommend buying reusable plastic utensils designed for barbecues and picnics, then wrapping them in a pretty cloth napkin. Reusable and much more practical.

I love these!!! I keep one set at work (haven't used plastic ever since), one in my car for eating out and keep four more sets at home to bring for my family when we go out or go on road trips. I also grab them for parties and fundraisers. I can't remember the last time I used plastic ware.
