The food industry has been overusing hard-to-recycle plastic packaging. However, it has caused severe environmental issues. As a solution to the plastic packaging crisis, casein-based plastic packages, which are made out of milk proteins, have recently been invented. The edible milk-based packaging promises to have advantages in general.
First of all, using casein would reduce a large amount of waste. Casein-based wraps are biodegradable, which means they can easily dissolve in water. The good news is, they hardly have any impact on the maritime environment. This is because casein is a chief protein in milk, and protein does not do any harm to the environment when disposed of. Significant drops in landfills can be expected.
Second, food can stay fresher when using casein-based plastic packages. Casein is much more effective in blocking oxygen due to its pores, which are smaller than those of other kinds of plastic materials. Since casein-based films possess strength and low oxygen permeability, they become more effective in preventing food spoilage during distribution processes.
Third, casein-based plastic bags can be nutritious. While many other edible plastic packages are made out of starch, casein contains a high number of proteins and other edible substances such as hydroxyl and amino groups, which are good for producing enzymes, hormones and other bodily chemicals. These are also very nutritious for our bones and muscles. Other nutrients, such as vitamins or probiotics, can be added for more health benefits.
Due to overusing of plastic packaging and its threatning environmental issues, the passage mentions a possible solution to plastic packaging that is casein-based packaging by proving some facts about it. However, the lecturer opposes this facts by providing certain evidences which are mentioned below.
Firstly, in the passage it is mentioned that casein can reduce waste due to its biodegradibility and hence drops in landfills is expected. However, the lecturer believes that the waste cannot be decreased. Due to casein's vulnerability to water and high temperature instead there might be increase in waste due to its disposal.
Secondly, in the passage it is mentioned that food refreshment is restored using casein package due to its property of blocking oxygen due to its pores and thus preventing food spoilage. But, the lecturer opposes by saying that food could not be free from spoilage. The water can act as a plasticizer and can affect the taste of food.
Lastly, in the passage it is mentioned that casein bags are edible due to presence of high amount of protien and hydroxyl and amino acids. But, the lecturer points out this by saying that this substance are common to the substances present in milk. So, people having milk allergy can have adverse effect on their health if they consume casein plastic bags.
In conclusion, the lecturer points out flaws in the advantages of casein plastic bags by providing evidences.
