Now you can even eat the wrapper on your burger as well: Brazilian chain Bob’s creates edible paper containers

Burger lovers in Brazil no longer need to unwrap their favourite snacks before taking a bite after a fast food firm started serving them up in edible paper.

In its advert for the new product, the firm shows customers happily tucking in to the paper-wrapped treats – although many are believed to have been a little confused by the change at first.

The move has been such a success that the firm has managed to significantly reduce the amount of paper waste thrown away by customers, Odditycentral reports.

Earlier this year a Harvard scientist reported the development of ‘WikiCells,’ – ‘novel edible forms’ that could be used to package food while taking on its flavour.

It is unclear whether Bob’s has used WikiCells technology in the making of its edible paper, but its customers do not appear to be complaining.
