Weekly Obsession - Edible Packaging

In an effort to reduce the millions of tons of packaging waste in US landfills companies are coming up with packaging that is edible and sometimes even yummy! MonoSol has created a special film with the same type of polymers drug companies use to cover pills with. They are currently testing it on everything from sports drinks to oatmeal. Loliware's edible cups are made from natural pectins, can juice and then infused with flavors like the above spicy pepper. Think of the bloody mary possibilities!
