Has anyone tried out the clamshells made from corn? I use cellophane bags that are compostable for most of our market items, but there are some vegetables/fruits that would display better in the clamshell. I wish I could just forget the packaging, but it's amazing how much better even tomatoes sell, if they are in a package of some kind.
Below is the website and description for the clamshells I've been considering.

"Compostable hinged clamshell containers are designed to keep perishables fresher, longer because of a superior seal you won't find on conventional clamshell containers. Made from 100% renewable resources. Environmental message will appeal to customers."

Hi Marcy,
Packaging Direct has some really nice multi-purpose one pint clamshells.
Go to page 4 of http://cmpackaging.com/pdf/pdi/Clamshells 1 Pint and Smaller

Check out model 35-1 PTNV - it's a nice unusual jewel-box shape. PD is
very good about sending samples and their quality is excellent.

Any ideas for sources to get one pint cartons for salsa? I'm thinking of
the clear plastic type with lids. I've checked my usual catalogs, but
this
is the first time for this.
