Question from CG

Hi Deborah,

I’ve heard about (and even seen a couple of times) food products packaged with corn- or rice-based plastic.

Do you know of any zipper bags made from corn or rice? I use tons of plastic bags, and I would like to find a better alternative.

Debra’s Answer

I haven’t seen any. Readers?

If you use a lot of plastic bags, I suggest you re-use them as many times as possible.
