Are you ready to join the tastiest eco-revolution of the century? A revolution that not only cleanses the Earth of plastic waste, but also tickles your taste buds with gourmet-grade garbage and cleans up the microplastic in your body? Come eat “plastic” with us!
Introducing Plascetamol™ – our proudly speculative probiotic made from the poop of the superworm (Zophobas morio) – nature’s very own plastic-chomping hero. After a rigorous process of isolating, identifying, and amplifying the bacteria capable of consuming plastic waste, we’ve turned this worm waste into little digestible miracles. With Plascetamol™, your gut could soon be digesting plastic like a champ!
This event imagines a deliciously dystopian future where plastic waste is recycled not just through bins, but through bellies—ours, yours, and possibly your neighbour’s dog’s. It’s consumption meets consumption: a loop of chewing, pooping, and saving the planet. Yum.
Don’t worry, our "plastic" is 100% food-safe, bio-based, and disappointingly non-toxic.
Limited to 20 brave souls. First come, first consumed.
