NEATS USA

For years, we've been aware of the myriad of problems with restaurant utensils. They didn't necessarily look dirty, but there was no way to know whether they'd been handled in a manner that left them safe for consumers. Who had touched them? Were their hands clean? How hot was the water they were washed in? If they were left on a table, had other patrons handled them? And what were the options in these scenarios? Dunking knives and forks in your water glass? Carrying your own utensils? We knew there was a better solution and set out to create it. It had to be portable. It had to be nontoxic with no aftertaste and it had to be easy to use. The initial concept for what would ultimately become neats was developed back in 2010. Over the next few years, we honed the concept, working with manufacturers to perfect the formula. Today, neats is a reality that is destined to positively impact dining on both land and sea — from traveling abroad to dining in restaurants, college dining halls, corporate cafeterias, sporting events and concerts. We believe that you should not have to risk your health and the health of your family to enjoy eating out. Remember: Think neats before you eat!
