Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Fast-growing in nature, bamboo is also fast-growing in popularity as one of the best renewable resources available. Totally Bamboo prides itself on using only hand-selected, China-grown "moso" bamboo, which is not a food source or habitat for the giant panda, and which grows to harvestable size in just 3 to 5 years. Totally Bamboo follows strict environmental guidelines for processing and fair labor policies for its workers. And, the toxin-free products contain no dyes, stains, or glues containing formaldehyde.

Totally Bamboo gift sets come attractively boxed in natural packaging. Surprise your sushi-loving friend with this set containing seven pieces, all made of slender, laminated strips of bamboo. Included are a beautifully curved sushi plate, measuring 6 by 9-1/2 inches; two pairs of Twist chopsticks that twist down their entire length; two mini bowls, measuring two inches in diameter, for sauces or dips; and two chopstick rests. Natural variations in color and an oven-heating process that caramelizes the natural sugars in the bamboo and produces a honey tone, are creatively arranged to form an artistic dimension. Because the color goes all the way through, bamboo items can be sanded if need be. After use, simply wash lightly with warm, soapy water, and wipe now and then with mineral oil. Harder than wood, bamboo won't absorb water, crack, or peel. --Ann Bieri

Product Description

From the original bamboo cutting board company, Totally Bamboo, this sushi gift set is a beautiful, functional, ecologically sound addition to any home. Bamboo is actually a grass that grows to a harvestable height of 60 feet in about 3 to 5 years, growing as much as 2 feet per day. It has an extensive root system that continually sends up new shoots, naturally replenishing itself. It does not require replanting, making it one of the most renewable resources known. Totally Bamboo uses 'Moso' timber bamboo which is neither a food source nor a habitat for the Giant Panda. Totally Bamboo's products are assembled with approved food-grade glue -- none of their items are made with formaldehyde-based glue. No dyes or stains are used in the manufacturing process. The pleasing designs are created by combining originally-colored bamboo with steamed bamboo, which darkens due to caramellized sugars within the wood. The gift set includes one bamboo sushi plate, 2 pairs bamboo chopsticks, 2 bamboo chopstick rests, and 2 bamboo 2" dipping bowls. Totally Bamboo prides itself on using only premium hand-selected bamboo, innovative design, exemplary craftmanship, and fair labor policies.

This little sushi dining set is perfect for takeout sushi at home. It would be the perfect gift for anyone who loves sushi. The bamboo is very attractive, solid, and the chop sticks have a very good feel to the hand.

While the product was very nice, I assumed there would be 2 plates as there were 2 sets of chopsticks, 2 bowls, 2 holders so I was displeased with there being only 1 plate. Other sets had 2 plates, wish I had bought a different set.
