Try to stick the point of a knife under the edge and pry it up, or drill a hole in the center and put something in the hole to pry them out. Either way will probably damage them to some degree.

Some people claim to use duct tape doubled over as well.

If you don’t want them just tear them up with a fork or something…

I use duct tape…
