@markmetz
Can this mushroom-based packing material be deployed at scale?
I, for one, sure hope so.

@Morpurgo @markmetz I'm curious what they mean with commercially viable yeah. Cause well I really would love that to be the case, I'm somewhat doubting that

@markmetz can someone fund the shit out of this project? Oh wait, I forgot the people with money are assholes.

@markmetz
Mushroom️ is a registered trademark? That doesn't seem helpful.

[jor@eldritch.cafe]

@markmetz But, are we sure the mushroom packagings will not evolve into blobs that will grow and eat us in the end ?

[silverarrows@autistics.life]

@markmetz there was a documentary about this on BBC2 like 15 years ago and it looked like such a great development. I never heard anything of it again. I hope it's finally taking off.

@mndflayr @markmetz I don’t think they are using the mushrooms you are thinking of.

[extra_special_carbon@mastodon.world]

@markmetz How is this better than pulped cellulose or cornstarch, which is already in use?

As with the other plant based polystyrene substitutes, there are likely applications it doesn’t work due to permeability.

[admin@goeppingen.social]

@markmetz amazing but there have to be side effects.
using fungi surely has side effects. Just like using aluminium or other metals or .. plastics
