New Edible Rings on 6-Packs Can Feed Animals Instead of Harming Them

New Edible Rings on 6-Packs Can Feed Animals Instead of Harming Them
This innovative six-pack ring, made from beer by-products, will not be choking any animals or leaving plastic to pile up in the environment.

 

A craft beer maker in Florida has created a six-pack ring that feeds animals instead of endangering them.

Saltwater Brewery has replaced the dangerous plastic rings with their own innovation–a 6-pack carrier made out of the wheat and barley waste leftover from making beer. The rings are as strong as the usual plastic ones, but are biodegradable and even safe for animals to eat.

It's expensive to make the edible rings, but Saltwater Brewery president Chris Gove says if other breweries adopted the idea, mass production could bring the cost down to be competitive with plastic.

"We want to influence the big guys," Gove says in the video below, "and inspire them to also get on board."
