Finally. It's not a flying car or a personal communicator device (oh wait, we have those) but if this isn't a sign of an actual, 100% better-future thing then... well... maybe we just haven't heard the downside yet.

Seriously, though, pretty cool, right? Hopefully, along with SunChips, they'll also soon have chips in these bags that *I* like to *eat* (hint: Multigrain Tostidos), but the idea that the bag iself will biodegrade and compost? Excellent. Very nice. Next up, "plastic" bags from the big boxes. I'm lookin' at you, Wal-Mart.
