Spudware, 80% potato starch Cutlery


As part or world Blog Action Day, I thought I'd share this new find of mine. Totaly biodegradable cutlery.

"Say goodbye to plastic cutlery and hello to SpudWare—cutlery made from 80% potato starch and 20% soy oil that’s just as heat resistant and every bit as strong as plastic cutlery. The kicker? It biodegrades in just 180 days! SpudWare can even be washed and reused, so you can eat your potatoes with potatoes for months to come." Inhabitat.

I would love to find out how the material is made, so I can try experimenting with it. It's quite a coincidence that the new competition by DesignBOOM is a cutlery design completion.

No way, this is the coolest thing to buy instead of regular plastic ware. I am going to definitely try it also.

Thanks for this info.
