Pet plastic depolarizes a beam of polarized light.  How is that for a simple 
explanation.

What? You have a problem with making plastic more digestible to slime… I used 
to keep a stack of petri dishes of pet slime molds, it was known as the tower 
of slime. Towers are popular with slime.

I think the word "Trumps" is one that people might find a bit disconcerting at

Unless by "trumping" you mean to attract racists and incite violence.

PLA has a very good lifetime in use 'on the shelf' it doesn't begin to
breakdown until it is kept in the warm, wet, and dark though it has a
relatively short lifetime in the direct sun of some many months so you would
not want to make an inflatable back yard wading pool for your children... on
the other hand it would likely last the summer splashing season then fall to
pieces :)

Yes, but how long will the plastic last on the pantry shelf?
