Customer Reviews

not what they seem to be
if you're buying this product for environmental reasons be warned that they are made mostly of plastic with cornstarch added. I called the company and they informed me that over 90% was plastic (petroleum).

for the eco-minded...
biobag is the real deal.

Won't Get Fooled Again!
I loved these bags until I read the review on Amazon and found out about the high plastic content. I e-mailed the company and they stated: "The material is: 5% biodegradable resin include starch, synthetic polymer, additives, 95% HDP (high density polypropylene). It takes approx. 18 mos for the process to start and a total of approx. 2 years to run full cycle." Basically, these bags are no more biodegradable than your standard plastic shopping bag. This is very misleading advertising.

Misleading
I've bought 3 or 4 100-ct boxes of these bags and was patting myself on the back for doing the right thing, until another comment on here inspired me to email the company and ask for verification. They responded with the following:

"Our cornstarch bags are made with 5% biodegradable resin (which includes starch and synthetic polymer), and 95% HDP (high density polypropylene)."

I appreciate their customer service, but not their misleading packaging. Thank you to the other reviewer for calling my attention to this.
