DIY - How to Make Potato Plastic!

Here’s a fun DIY for those of you with too much time in your hands, a DIY on how to make potato plastic! (or make plastic from potatoes that’s what I meant)

I am not sure if the potato plastic itself is edible but does look like a real good alternative to our traditional air-polluting plastic.

In this video we make a batch of potato plastic based on an instructable by Brandon121233. For this project you will need potato starch, white vinegar, baking soda, water, and glycerin (which can be found at most pharmacies). The tools for this project are a stove and saucer pan, in addition you’ll need a blender, knife, and peeler if you’re making your own starch.
