Turning agro-waste into cutlery and crockery | The Hindu

What you are seeing here is a combination of rice husk and rice straw
In a few minutes, this will be transformed into something you would use every day
Once the edges are smoothened, you get biodegradable plates
Now, wheat bran, pineapple waste, apple prunes, banana waste and the like are getting converted into biodegradable plates, cups, and packaging containers.
These products have a shelf life of 10 to 12 months and can withstand all kinds of food and liquids.

The edible straws seem great but I don't think anyone will want to eat cups and plates 😅
