I am assuming if you are reading this right now…that you just viewed the video above. Were you as amazed as me the first time you saw this?
I checked it out last week when this guy updated his MySpace status with this link.
The story goes like this…
Pizza generates guilt. Some people feel guilty eating the calories and carbs. Others feel guilty because of the waste. You use paper plates that get thrown out. And, since the box won’t fit in the fridge, you have to wrap each leftover slice in aluminum foil, which gets thrown out, too.
What to do? William Walsh has a solution.
Walsh’s company, e.c.o. Incorporated, has created Green Box, a pizza box that acts as its own paper plates and storage unit.
The box’s lid is perforated to tear into four square plates. The bottom of the box folds over into a space-friendly storage container for leftover slices.
How did Walsh come up with the Green Box? In college, he lived in a house with forty football players who opted to throw out their dirty dishes instead of washing them. One day, they were eating pizza when Walsh noticed grease dripping down his housemate’s shirt. Walsh tore the lid from the pizza box, ripped it into makeshift plates, and handed them to his fellow diners. An idea was born.
Walsh, an engineering student, bought 150 pizza boxes and went to work with a ruler and an exacto knife and experimented on improving the design….
