We have Corelle dinnerware in the TT and also silverware but we also carry a good supply of paper and sometimes plastic plates... If the dinner is conducove to using paper plates, we use them to keep cleanup at a minimum when camping in State Parks and dry hookups... If we're at a FHU site where water is plentiful, we'll use the Corelle and wash it... I hate plastic forks and knoves and we don't even carry them so we always use our regular knives and forks and just wash them...

We avoided paper plates & plastic utensils as much as possible. I didn't mind doing dishes for 10 minutes & felt better about not tossing stuff into the landfill.

When camping with hook-ups usually use microwaveable 'melmac' plates & real utensils. Dry camping or sandwichs etc. use thin/cheapy paper plates and plastic/straw 'chargers'. (less to toss in landfill)

Primarily use paper plates and plastic utensils. We do have plastic plates and real silverware to use when we eat steak or pork chops. The paper just won't hold up to the sawing motion of the knife during the eating frenzy.

We have a full set of dishes in the trailer. It depends on what we are eating...steak it is real plates...hot dogs and chips paper plates. We always use real utensils though, I don't like plastic forks.

Started using just plastic knives forks and spoons and paper plates. Now use Corelle and stainless steel knives forks and spoons. I refuse to do dishes though so I cook DW does the dishes. Found a counter top dish washer that we will try out next spring.
