You can now eat your own plate
|Taipei, Taiwan (AP) - Diners tempted to lick
a plate after a delicious meal can now go a step further - eat the plate.Chen Liang-erh, 50, an amateur
inventor, announced Friday that he had perfected an edible plate made from wheat grain, and that he planned
to mass-produce it and other edible crockery including cups, bowls and food containers.Chen spent six years
developing the plate, which he said would retail at about 7 cents each.Diners who don't want to eat the
items - which taste like unsalted popcorn - can boil them for a nutritious meal for animals, he said.Chen
said this can help reduce pollution caused by discarded crockery. The only disadvantage, he said, is his
crockery cannot be washed and reused.
