What is bamboo: Definition and 142 Discussions

Does anyone know if you can or need to oil the bamboo platters/bowls at any time after any uses? I have a customer that's used to using oil to treat her wooden salad bowls and wanted to know if it's something that needs to or can be done with the bamboo ones too. Any help would be great...

Do you have to be careful putting raw meat on our bamboo?

I feel so posh eating my bread dunked in parm/garlic & EVOO served in the mini bowl on the cracker tray....lol. Something so small, but I think it makes a big difference, if you know what I mean :p

I have a customer who has her own candy business and is looking for a high heat spoon. Does anyone know what heat our bamboo spoons can withstand and not crack? Thanks!

Has anyone else had any issues with the Bamboo Grinder Stand out of the box? The one in my sample package had issues with the handle/upright part - it was tilted far enough to one side that it was touching the grinder :( I requested an adjustment, and the replacement arrived today - and has...

I LOVE it!!! I am going to have to purchase a few of these. I just received my SAT today and the first thing I did was put my tray next to my stove where I keep all my oils and vinegars etc. It makes an excellent tray for them and a beautiful addition to my counter. I think I am going to need at...

Anyone know if the Bamboo Snack Bowls (the new small round ones) are safe to use in the microwave? The use and care says nothing about the microwave. I was planing to use them tonight for the new Ginger Wasabi and Spicey Pineapple Rum sauces and wanted to heat them up before serving. Should I...

The medium bowl is about the size of the medium SA Bowl - it fits into the 3 tier stand My question is about the Large Bamboo Bowl - will it or does it fit the square woven selection ? ? ? I LOVE all of mine Woven Selections - I have them displayed on my kitchen wall and they look great...

Not a GREAT tip...lol......but it worked nice for us. We made brussel sprouts last night, and used the fork to serve them. We also used the mini bamboo ladle from the same set for the gravy. LOVE that ladle for gravy! On a side note I used my DCB to make the 30 minute chicken last...

Sorry if this has already been asked and answered but... Does anybody know if the new small bamboo bowls will fit into the caddy stand?

I have to return bamboo tongs for my aunt... they splintered... what is the address I sent it to? I cannot seem to find it! Thanks

I am shocked! I just knew that this would be the HOT item this season. I have only sold 4! How many have you sold? How are you selling them? What words are you using?

I had a guest at a show ask me if it's a fluke thing or what, but she has 2 bamboo spoons and they both have black mold on them. She runs them through the dishwasher, so she can't figure out why they are developing the mold. They are old enough to be past the guarantee. Anyone else hear of...

I am new and just had one of my hosts call me and want to order the Bamboo bowl, she forgot to order it on her show. She is willing to do an individual order for it. My question is, can she use her past host discount on it? Thanks

Will our new Bamboo Knife Block hold other off-brand knives? I thought at NC they mentioned it was only for our knives.

I was just looking at Crate and Barrel's new products. They have new Acrylic Bamboo Salt/Pepper Mill. I was surprised to see them. I really like this store, but it's so far away. I'd like to see this stuff in person.

I JUST GOT MY BAMBOO BOWL - anyone else? IT IS BEAUTIFUL :)

I have a host that had $600 in sales at her show and earned the Bamboo Bowl. There's no item number listed on the flyer to put it on her host order. Is it something that'll she'll receive automatically from HO? I would feel better if it's something I can receipt for her should she have a...

I am currently trying to add the Bamboo Square Bowl to my August host's order since her show is over $550 in sales. However the item is not showing up in the product list. (I believe the item # is HQ23.) Anyone have an idea why I might be having this problem?

I called HO today to find out where my SAT Bamboo Bowl was. It finally shipped today. I also asked her about the Drink Charms. I've received just one set. I asked her about the other and she said it was shipped with something else that was sent later. I remember reading something about...

I just got it.. I love the look and feel but thought it would be bigger. Much smaller then I thought it would be...

I was just about to order my sample package and I want the bamboo knife block and one of the new knives but I'm confused. The new knife comes with a honing case so does that mean I can't use the block or do I use it and then have the honing case just sitting around? Or is this just for the...

I just saw that the bamboo bowl is not on backorder any more but i haven't gotten mine from the SAT yet. Has anyone gotten theirs yet? I know some hosts have. Also noticed that my knife block is coming today! : )

I got my knife block yesterday and it's no nice and heavy, but the slots are all "messed" up! It's suppose to hold (and does) 14 knives so you'd naturally think oh ok 2 of each, NOT THE CASE! It'll hold like 3 petite paring, 6 Utility (or boning, regular paring), 3 Large Knives (either the...

I'm trying to close out and Aug party with over $550 in sales is there a code for the free bamboo bowl that I am missing? Or do they just know and add it to her order?

I thought I read somewhere (maybe newswire) or here about the bamboo bowls that we earned in SAT have shipped?? Has anyone gotten theirs yet? Just wondering? Waiting for mine to arrive! :rolleyes: TIA

I am trying to turn in a show and it won't let me and says that the bamboo bowl is no longer available... I just got my two in the mail yesterday from sell a thon and director's package. I have not read anywhere about it not being available anymore.. Should I just submit the show and hope...

Just an FYI for those who bought the bamboo block at $14 off of the sample price list online & in CC they can't by law charge us the additional. It is unlawful for them to post one price, you pay it and then have them come back to you later saying that you owe such and such extra. They are not...

I just received an order for a host that sold over 550.00 this month. Inside the box was the BAMBOO BOWL!! I had to open it. It is lighter than I thought but overall the design is awesome. Makes a great statement on the table. Can't wait to get mine :D Just wanted to share.

Woo hoo!! My bamboo bowl (just one so far) and the drink charms just came today!! The bowl is nice. It has a weird smell to it, but it's probably just from being wrapped in a bag inside the box. Yay!
