Rice paper fast food packaging
Rice paper fast food packaging
Idea Description
I would like to see fast food packaged in rice paper packages and containers,and printed with food grade ink, you could eat the entire thing or pitch it as a totally degradable waste product.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
Design and market the packaging.
Vote for it now.



What advice do you have to help me grow my idea?
Not only a landfill problem, it fills a very large miles square area out in the ocean; read that somewhere. However, your idea has come at a time when we need solutions to such problems and I think the support would be huge. Look at the size of the fast food industry and imagine the impact such an idea would have on lowering the level of waste. And we all know that they, the fast food industry, will want to be the first ones to say, 'They' support going green by using this type of packaging. I do believe you could have something here. Go for it! Sounds exciting to me.
This is a tremendous idea! As a college student, I eat my fair share of fast food and it is always a little disheartening to see how large the pile of trash is at the end. Is a rice or corn based cardboard product possible? When you get a chance - please check out my idea and leave me a comment! I would love to hear what you have to say. Thank you and good luck.

have you looked into corn based packaging? How does the rice based packaging react to different weather and temperature conditions?
Mmusick has a good point there. If nothing else, the paper would have to be made thick so as not to melt.
Is rice paper edible. I am familar with some of the candies that have edible wrapping but when they contact moisture ( grease or whatever ) the paper disolves. Your fries would melt the paper.
This is very interesting, the fast food industry has long been a large contributor of our landfill problem. I would love to see something like this really happen and even save some trees to boot!
I like this idea...I wonder if something like it has been tried before.
