Or your ice cream. How about your soda coming from a vending machine not in a recyclable can, but rather with a peel you can bite right into. It's closer to reality than you might think. Science and Technology Fri, 30 Nov 2012 11:59:08 -0600 I love this idea! I've always wanted to have a biodegradable, or at least less wasteful way of food packaging. So much plastic, cardboard, metal, etc is tossed after we get what we want on the inside. And there are many people who do not recycle, as well as many products that are not even labeled recyclable! This is a perfect solution. No waste--all taste. PRI: Public Radio International
