I reckon there’s just no good way to strike a balance between usability and palatability. The majority of these will surely be admired and perhaps given a perfunctory nibble before being trashed (and not even composted).

I have often said, while stoned I might add, that a pizza box should be edible, say as desert.
Looks like a business opportunity for the right person…

Everything is edible if you’re brave enough.
If it is indigestible then it just counts as roughage.

My chef friend once said while eating a steak sandwich, " Don’t think of it as bread, think of it as an edible serviette."
You and he are onto something.

There’s a lot of work being done on using fungi to grow packaging material. It wouldn’t be a great leap from that to an edible box. Might not taste great, however.
