Where to Buy Glass Microwave Plate Cover?

Does anyone know where I can source something like this: https://goo.gl/YyyRYZ

For some reason they seem to be impossible to source here, only plastic ones available.

And plastic quickly stains from superheated splattered food.

Not specifically that, but if you dont have much success, you can use a pyrex round container

e.g.

And use oven mitts to remove if too hot

  Thanks, it's what I currently use but it's not ideal.
  
  I just don't get why these things aren't easily available.

How long are you nuking stuff for plastic ones to stain? We have a plastic one that cleans perfectly fine?

  Not long, try heating up soup, which will superheat even on low and splatter.

    2 options: set it on a lower power setting before nuking…. or stop it and give the soup a stir every 30 or so seconds so it heats up evenly and doesn't develop molten hot pockets that explode.

Put a sheet of paper towel over the plate before you use it.

I usually use a sheet of baking paper. You can size it, shape it and reuse it.
And it doesn't stick to food.
