Eat Corn... with Corn! - Biodegradable Plastic!!!
Plastic sucks. Yep, we said it. Sorry Mr. McGuire, its the truth... (that's a Graduate reference for those of you under 40). We use oil to make it, which also pollutes the air, and then we throw it in landfills where it doesnt decompose. So lets review: Bad, Bad, Terrible. Now how much fun does that tupperware party sound? ...Not so much right?
Well don't fret! You can have you cake... er... Corn - and eat (with) it too! Check out biodegradable plastic made from corn and potato starch:
This cutlery available from Vegware (http://www.vegware.co.uk/) is just a small example. There are dozens (if not hundreds) of companies out there producing plastic alternatives. What does this mean? Well, in addition to being able to eat with a "plastic" fork without feeling like you're contributing to the "spreading of democracy" in the Middle East, you can just toss your fork in the trash or compost and watch it dissappear (given a few months of spare time).
