Natural and biodegradable doesn't mean safe of human ingestion.

And made from petroleum with many interesting additives does mean safe for human ingestion I suppose?

  • Maybe. Safe of ingestion means we have to know what happens in the body. Some plastics just pass right through and are safe; some biodegradable things are good food for the body. Some biodegradable things degrade to something harmful, and some plastics do get absored into the body and are harmful.
