It ’s estimate that over 130 million wooden chopsticks are produced every day , and most are destined to end up in the shabu after just one use . trusted , wood breaks down a destiny better than plastic , but a brace of engineers from Barcelona have a better idea . They’reproducing chopsticks made from Elmer Rice chaff — an unwanted by - product of Elmer Rice product .
you may already grease one’s palms re - useable chopstick made from materials like ceramic or plastic , but they just do n’t have the same feel and grain as wooden ones do . And that ’s what cheer the creation of a new composite textile known as Solit Riceit which is made from eco - well-disposed polymer and Elmer Rice stubble , but still has the same feel and finger of woodwind instrument .
Not only are the Solit Riceit chopsticks an all - around full alternative to ones made from materials like bamboo , their pattern has also been meliorate with a obliterable endcap that holds the chopstick together when not in use , but doubles as a respite while you ’re eating .
You alas ca n’t grease one’s palms the Solit Riceit chopsticks just yet , but a assurance of $ 28 on its Kickstarter campaign will reserve you a curing of eight — assuming its Godhead achieve their backing finish and things go smoothly during yield . In other quarrel , the common caveat of a crowdfunded product apply here . But if it succeeds , it seems like a less guilty alternative to the wooden circle you snarl apart every prison term you have sushi for lunch . [ Kickstarter – Solit - RiceItviaInventorSpot ]
