HEHow long before Holy Carp goes soggy? The answer is surprising - even to us!
We recommend filling and using Holy Carp within 48 hours, not because it will go soggy and leak through the bottom, but for maximum freshness of the soy.
The fibre actually never soaks through. Instead, the soy slowly evaporates over time.
How is this possible without plastic? A bit of clever chemistry allows us to make Holy Carp durable in service, then disappear when done.
There is a food safe additive mixed into the fibres that gives the material moisture resistance. It’s:
Plastic free
PFAS (forever chemical) free
Bioplastic free
Instead it’s derived from vegetable fat, similar to a wax, and happens to work perfectly with soy sauce.
The magic happens when you put it in the presence of microbes in a home composting environment and the plant fibre breaks down back to the soil. #sushi #sustainablepackaging #sushirestaurant
