Edible food packaging: promise and problems ahead
Foods expert Karen Kreipke of Texas A&M notes edible containers like ice cream cones and pie crusts could reshape packaging, with coatings such as Myvacet reducing moisture loss and adding nutrients. She cites sanitation, strength, and cost as barriers, and points to beeswax and cheese rind as limited natural precedents, while noting no universal coating yet. Also mentions veterans applying for G Bill benefits should attach DD Form 214 to VA claims to speed processing.
