Edible Easter Grass

by Steve
Friday, September 30, 2005

This is actually a pretty sensible product if you think about it. Instead of filling up the landfills with shreds of green plastic that never degrade, get some that will.

Edible Easter Grass is a product of Germany, named "Hoch Fun-Food Edible Easter Grass", and is brought to the States by Chicago Importing Co. It's made of "wafer paper", a rice product, and is meant to replace the plastic variety that decorates easter baskets.

Oh, and yup, you can eat it too.

Won't be available until Easter of 2006.

Thank God!

I remember when I was little, my mother would stuff my Easter basket with pounds of shredded pink and yellow cellophane. I just looked at it like "What do I do with this?" The rest of the year, I'd find strands of it in every crevice of my room.

Just wait. Next year, it'll be edible baskets.

Target is selling edible grass in three colors pink, white and green and they are flavored! All for only $1.99!

Yup! They sell it at Target for cheap and personally, I like it more than little plastic pieces that travel to random places in the house.
I say buy it! Better mess to clean up if most of it was eaten! :)

ugh this stuff tastes soo nasty..It tastes stale and kinda flavorless. Atleast cleanup is easier, but I don't recommend this for consumption.

I'm sure it isn't very delicious, but I agree that it is a great idea. This year I am making my 13 month old baby his first Easter Basket, and I sure would rather he munch a handful of this stuff than the plastic cellophane!
Got mine at Walmart for just under 2 bucks, and they have lots of colors from which to choose.

I think it is very good. My grandmother loves it BC it is sugar free and she is a diabetic.

Edible easter grass was invented by my husband RANDOM BALL and stolen by Eddie Long who works for invent tech.

Even though you have a valid point I am afraid that I must disagree.
