Edible cutlery has been commercially available for over a decade, but consumer hesitance and lack of awareness has held it back from going mainstream. A major deal signed in France and some new market research reports suggest that might be about to change.
Marseille-based edible cutlery startup Koovee has announced a partnership with French supermarket giant Carrefour to provide their durable cutlery, made from wheatflour, to customers in 600 Carrefour locations around France.
Edible cutlery is an idea that has been around for quite a while, but is yet to quite take off. Plastic cutlery has long been known to bring serious environmental harm, as they fragment into microplastics which can contaminate just about every ecosystem on earth.
