Interestingly enough there was an insert in my packages from AHBS about the peanuts. Made from starch it says. Biodegradable. Stronger.

I love throwing a few handfuls of them into the women's toilet at work.

As the chief engineer, I'm required to make sure all facility systems are working in every location . . .and to throw a few handfuls of bio packing peanuts into the women's toilet to let them slowly slime themselves into a hideous goo with the accompanying screams of horror.
