Making BioPlastics, Environmentally Friendly Plastics
This is my first instructable so please try not to criticize to harshly.

BioPlastics are plastics that can be made out of common household products.
These are to the environment in that they contain no petroleum unlike usual plastics such as tupperware etc. Also instead of taking about 100 years to fully decompose it only takes about 7.

There are probably other instructables about BioPlastics out there, but I made some for a school project so I decided to make an Instructable

Here are the ingredients that I used...

-Corn starch
-Water
-vegetable/Canola (Optional)
-Wax Paper (optional)

You will also need a microwave.
And measuring tools
