bioplastics don't work
My company, in a misguided effort to "save the world" has replaced reusable metal utensils with these bio-plastic plant starch things...they don't work. They break down in heat and they do not hold their shape through use. during a normal lunch, I go through 4-5 sets of utensils as opposed to one set of metal utensils.
If these earphones are like most recycled products, they too will suck.
