What is bamboo: Definition and 146 Discussions

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!

I don't usually have a lot of time to post - Does anyone know about how long the Bamboo bowl is on backorder? I have a mystery host show next weekend I'd love to showcase the bowl!

Just to clarify, if I earned the $6,000 of Sell A Thon and the directors box, will I get 2 pepper grinders? and 2 bamboo bowls? Thanks!

I'm so upset! My hubby used a couple of bamboo pieces last night, and left them overnight in the pile of dirty dishes. Now they look HORRIBLE -- one almost looks green and splotchy, and the other has black spots that make it look moldy. I had no idea that the bamboo would turn funny...

Does anyone know why some of the bamboo products are dishwasher safe (spoons, spreader) and others are not (tongs, ladle)? Just curious.

My host from a March show (where 2 sheet pans were ordered) just called & asked me why she received bamboo tongs in the mail today. Apparently no other information came with it?? I then explained the sheet pan thing, and told her they were a thank you for her inconvenience. I told her to be...

I have a show tonight and the host said shes disappointed that bamboo is the special because she was told bamboo holds in bacteria. does anyone know anything about this?? :confused: I LOVE my bamboo products. Anyone know anything I can say to sway her into falling in love with these...

Tonight at my show I got a REALLY BIG order that totaled $146.50! It is part of my new biggest show EVER! It's almost enough for its own party! The customer (daughter of the host) probably would have booked a show except that a) her sister booked and b) her daughter had the show, so she...

I saw them at Bed Bath & Beyond yesterday for $1.99. I guess if you are desperate for them, you'll buy them there. Hopefully PC will put them on the outlet soon!!:o

I have a host who ordered this earlier this month. She used it to carve a chicken on and washed it with hot soapy water. The finish on it is ruined. Also the color of it is not the same as mine, it is much lighter. Here are a couple of pictures of what I am talking about. Is any of this normal?

i have a lady that had her bamboo spoons crack and a few of mine did but the older ones are they supose to do that or not? what to do?

Are these the small bamboo spoons, for dips and such, by a different name? Robin

I need to know, if you need to put an item number in for the FREE Bamboo Knife Spreader for this Feb Free to all guests special. My director says yes, but I remember reading somewhere that you don't have to because everyone who made a purchase is going to get one. What's the right answer...

Hi! I have a couple of customers recently asking for the Retired Bamboo Tongs, the small ones that they can use in their toaster. I know - I have tried selling them on the new style, but they won't budge. Anyone have some of these tongs they are willing to sale? (new in plastic) Hugs...

Does it still come with the old Bamboo Tongs as stated in the catalog?

I had a customer ask me how to treat the bamboo once it's been cut. Is there a way to refurbish the carving board? A way to fix knicks and cuts? I wasn't sure! TIA!

For my Feb. shows, I'm thinking of having snacks available on the cheese board w/ petite squares (since it's a March host special) and possibly bringing the cheese bistro set since it's being discontinued, but I'm not sure what would be the best food to use with it that way, other than a simple...

Has anyone else had a problem with the well in the bamboo cheese board not being big enough to hold the three petite squares like the description says? I have a customer who ordered one and I have submitted 2 adjustments for this problem. She just received her third one and said that although...

My first post. I have a customer that would like to know temperature that the Bamboo Specialty Cooking Set #2044 can withstand. And also the size of these . I have called and searched and can not find out the answer. Would appreciate any help.

Does anyone have any of the $2 bamboo tongs that they would part with?

Looking for those bamboo tongs to get stuff out of toasters. I have customers looking for them and they are discontinued. :cry: I am hoping to buy 4 of them if anyone has any left. :love:

Does anyone have 2 of the $2 retired bamboo tongs?? I have a customer that is looking for them and no one in my cluster has any. Thanks in advance!

Does anyone have any of the old bamboo tongs left? If so, I would like to purchase them from you. I had a couple of guests asking for them. Thanks!

A fellow consultant used last season's catty's for a fundraiser and the guest REALLY wants these items.... Any advice? The cookbook is the one that was discontinued last... sorry can't remember the name right now. Thanks, Carol

Hi everyone!! I've had some of the new bamboo serving spoons start to bubble on the tips...:grumpy: Has anyone else had this problem??:confused: I'm really upset because just about everyone has ordered these & if they all have that same problem, I'll be doing alot of adjustments:(

So my (old) bamboo spoon STAINED yesterday!! I mean, it sat in a pot of peas for about an hour and a half and after soaking it overnight AND today - it looks like someone wiped my baby's butt with it!!! :yuck: I earned it last February (before I signed) at a show that I hosted. So I...
