Most are polyester but you've raised an interesting, modern alternative.

Ah knowed they were prastic. Smile Karma

But they can just as easily be made from cellulose. It is just the water resistance that limits it's use. But fine if conditions permit.

Biodegradable doesn't come into it if the litter police catch you. Laughing

"Litter is waste that has been created by you and is left lying around in a public place. Biodegradable items, including breadcrumbs, are considered to be litter and you can be prosecuted for dropping them in a public place."

An Apple a Day will not keep the Bailiffs Away.

An Apple core is a biological waste that could contaminate the environment. After several years an apple orchard could spring up in the hedge.
