Question
I am looking for a dish/dishes that stay warm throughout a meal. I have a family member who takes a good half hour to eat a meal, and his food is cold before he finishes. Is there someting out there, maybe an insulated plate that can be heated in the microwave? Thank you, in advance.

Answer

Unfortunately, we do not have this type of product in our inventory.  I have, however, found a company that supplies a plate that, when heated retains heat for up to 30 minutes.  This plate is to be handled only at the rim once heated.
