RE:RE:RE:RE:Rumor The reality is plastics made from oil is the same as plant based. Oil comes from plants.
The plant based material is broken down into the chemical components used to make plastics. Only difference is the natural method took millions of years.

With plant-based materials, we will never reach a closed-loop sustainable solution for our packaging needs. Even worse, I hear plant-based packaging isn't even air-tight and your muffins will dry-out. Deplorable! And that's why the bank of canada is a proud shareholder of GDNP, because plant-based materials are NOT the solution.
Okay, thanks for your input! Now back to reality.
