Tired of seeing mountains of plastic cutlery polluting India's landfills, Narayana Peesapaty had an idea: What if you could eat your disposable spoon rather than toss it?
Peesapaty, a researcher and agriculture consultant from Hyderabad, India, developed an edible spoon made of*millet, rice and wheat flours, in 2010. **w, after selling 1.5 million spoons for his company Bakeys, he wants to reach even more eaters. Peesapaty k**ws that means he has to cut the cost of his products to compete with cheaper plastic counterparts.*
