A loaf of bread and a jug of wine might be adequate picnic fare for lovers, but a family like ours with teenagers usually finds itself lugging several coolers of food to an outing.
Tomorrow looks like a great day for a picnic, My daughter and I are both off work at the same time, so we are taking advantage of the day and going on an outing. My daughter is a vegetarian, so we take lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, maybe cheese, bread, and drinks.
Now comes the question, do I haul plates, glasses, etc. along with all that food? Then I also have to face a load of dishes when I return from our day of relaxing. Instead I’ve found a new alternative on my shelf, biodegradable dinner ware made from potatoes, corn, and limestone. Apparently, I can throw this in my compost pile and it will biodegrade in about 60 days.
After looking, I found a host of alternatives available online from recycyled plastic ware, to bamboo, to seeds,to palm sheaths, to other veggie combinations. Now to decide which one I like best. Have you seen things like these in your local stores?
Oh, and don’t forget, you can get your very own eco travel mug made from corn here at Imorganic.
