A food science expert from the U.S. Department of Agriculture said that a new environmentally friendly food package is expected to be available in the near future. This new packaging material is made entirely of crushed strawberries. It is estimated that this kind of packaging material will likely replace the traditional polyethylene plastic film in the future and become the main material of the food packaging industry.
In the test, the packaging film made of this new material can not only maintain freshness, but also improve the taste of fruits such as bananas and apples. Experts said that in the near future, not only strawberries but also vegetables and fruits such as carrots and broccoli can be used as packaging materials. There is no doubt that this new type of packaging material will revolutionize the food packaging industry.
