Styrofoam plates? Really?

I'm wondering why the HUB uses of styrofoam plates. Even McDonalds has phased out the use of this harmful and wasteful product (they began doing this in 1990!).

Why is USU so slow to change? The food is grossly overpriced as it is. The least we could do is serve this food on material that takes up less room in landfills, or is recyclable.
