There is a saying among Chinese people that "add new bowls and buy new chopsticks" during the Chinese New Year. Every family will buy some new tableware to use during the Chinese New Year. It has the meaning of importing more people and prosperity. At the same time, it also symbolizes that the granary at home is full of money and happiness.

The good taste of food is presented through tableware. Good tableware can even make the food look more delicious. Now there are more and more kinds of tableware in the market, and tableware of various materials can be bought. With more kinds, we don't know which kind to choose. Today, let's take a look at the advantages and disadvantages of all kinds of tableware!

1、 Bamboo and wood tableware

The biggest advantage of bamboo and wood tableware is that it is easy to obtain materials and has a natural style. It is non-conductive, non thermally conductive, has good insulation and heat resistance, and will not release harmful substances at high temperature. However, this kind of tableware also has one of the biggest defects, that is, it is easy to get moldy. After cleaning, if you don't pay attention to drying, mold spots may be found on the tableware when you reuse it next time.

The surface of bamboo and wood tableware in the market will be painted with a layer of paint. Therefore, when purchasing, it is best to buy products produced by well-known manufacturers. The paint used should be professional food grade paint products without stupidity and formaldehyde.

2、 Plastic tableware

At present, the recognized plastics that can be used to make tableware are made of polyethylene and polypropylene. Plastic tableware often has very beautiful patterns and colors, which is the favorite of children. However, behind the beauty of plastic tableware, there are many disadvantages. Plastic tableware is not resistant to high temperature. At high temperature, it will release harmful chemicals, and the oil stains on plastic tableware are not easy to clean.

When buying plastic tableware, try to avoid choosing the style with patterns on the inside. If the tableware has too many colors and pungent taste, don't buy it.

3、 Stainless steel tableware

The advantage of stainless steel tableware is that it is easy to clean and not fragile, but it is easy to be hot when in use, and the metal nickel and metal chromium contained are heavy metals. It is easy to precipitate metal ions when holding dishes for a long time. Therefore, when using stainless steel tableware, we must pay attention not to use it to contain acidic food.

Stainless steel tableware has three codes of "13-0", "18-0" and "18-8". The front number represents the content of metal chromium and the rear number represents the content of metal nickel. The function of chromium is to prevent the product from rusting, and the function of nickel is to make the product corrosion resistant. Therefore, the higher the content of nickel, the better the quality of the product. However, nickel and chromium are heavy metals, so the products purchased must meet the national standards.

4、 Ceramic tableware

Ceramic tablewarehas a good texture and rich colors and patterns. It is a kind of tableware used more in families at present. However, ceramic tableware is easy to break. Pay more attention when using it for children.

When buying ceramic tableware, it is best to buy underglaze color. A relatively simple way to distinguish is to touch the surface of tableware with your hand. The whole shows that it is smooth and the pattern has no protrusion, which means that this kind of ceramic belongs to underglaze color.

5、 Glass tableware

There are many similarities between glass tableware and ceramic tableware, but glass tableware is generally transparent, which also makes glass tableware look high-grade. The disadvantage of glass tableware is that it is easy to break like ceramic tableware.

When buying glass tableware, pay attention to the heat resistance of glass. Glass with heat-resistant materials has better heat resistance, and the price is higher than ordinary glass tableware.
