Food aside, I’ve used disposable spoons/forks/knives made of potato as a plastic alternative. Unlike pretty much every similar product that has a weird taste/texture or shit durability, the potato ones were pretty much indistinguishable from plastic except that the texture was kinda higher traction if that makes any sense. Like it’d kinda grab your lips a bit as they were sliding across a spoon, vs the plastic version is slightly less friction.
But, you stop noticing that after like the third bite.
Haven’t seen them used in years, so no idea if they’re still being produced, but it seemed like a golden standard to replace plastic the few times I used it.
That’s a thing?? Whoa. The wooden ones SUCK, plastic is alright but plastic… how are the potato ones to clean? One of the nice things about the plastic ones is you can clean them and keep them around in your bag for next time you need a spoon.
