       Packaging that Biodegragdes Harmlessly  ;D
       Styrofoam may soon be a thing of the past.

       It famously does NOT biodegrade and has continued to pour into
       our landfills, especially with the increased shipping due to
       expanded e-commerce.
       Eco Cradle is a new packaging that biodegrades harmlessly.
       Grown from mycelium, a fungal network of threadlike cells, the
       process also calls for seed husks, rice, grain and other
       agricultural byproducts.
       To make, it uses only 1/10th the energy needed to create
       styrofoam.  :o

       /> Toss it in the compost, or right in the garden.
       It is even edible! But it's not water soluble, due to the way
       it is "baked". It's fire resistant, which styrofoam is not.
       Another beautiful feature of this sustainable eco-packaging is
       that it can use all kinds of agricultural waste, depending on
       what is native to the region. Saw dust in one area, rice grain
       in another. No petrochemical inputs are used in the process.

       Hats off to the bright young minds at Ecovative

       who developed this
       amazing alternative to toxic packaging.
