Some of you asked me last week about our packing peanuts. I've been checking into it. Ours are recyclable but not biodegradable. I've found some other packing peanuts (same vendor) that ARE biodgradable - they dissolve in water. We have begun ordering those for future shipments.

I figure the only downside is in the rare occasion that the inside of the packing box got wet - and in that case the contents are probably in trouble and we'd have to replace them anyway. So I think this will be a good - and green - upgrade for us.
