2. How to choose household plates
1. Look at the patterns
When choosing plates, try to choose ones with fewer patterns. Too many patterns will bring health risks. That is, the color of the patterns will easily fall off after long-term use, and it will be harmful to the body if eaten in the stomach. If you must choose something with patterns, it is better to have as few as possible. The editor thinks the safest option is a solid color plate.
2. Choose plates with appropriate materials
Generally, ceramic plates are used at home, which have good heat resistance and will not release toxic substances even if the temperature is high; glass plates are easy to wash, but have poor heat resistance; and plastic plates are very impractical and inferior. Plastic releases toxic substances when it comes into contact with hot dishes. Therefore, be careful when purchasing and try to choose ceramic ones.
3. Look at the color and craftsmanship of the plate pattern
Most of the patterns on the plate are colored. Pay special attention when selecting. Do not choose printed ones, as these colors are easy to fall off. Choose light-colored patterns that are fired together with the plate. This kind of pattern has a strong color and is durable. Will not wear out easily. The patterns on some plates may feel uneven, which means they were fired together with the plates and you may consider purchasing them.
4. Look at the depth of the plate
Generally, deeper plates can hold more vegetables and soups, which are more practical and can be used more. Flat plates can hold fewer dishes, so you should buy less when purchasing.
5. Weigh the weight of the plate
The texture of the plate can be judged by weighing it. A plate that is too light is made of poor materials, has a thin bottom and is not durable. Try to choose something that is more generous in weight.
6. Go to regular shopping malls to buy
Many people buy plates at street stalls or markets for convenience. Although they are cheap, the quality of the plates is difficult to guarantee. Long-term use will have adverse effects on the human body.
