Hey, if you want to save the world by making biodegradable plastic forks from corn, go right ahead.
But I'd appreciate it if the fork didn't warp out of shape when I try to eat the delicious kibbeh my wife made for my lunch.
By the way— I love my wife and her delicious kibbeh.

from a greenie perspective ;), that's why you don't use plastic but reusable/washable ones lol
