I think the takeout companies need to look to more traditional forms of packaging from the far east. The use of sustainable local products such as bamboo leaves and stalks as well as banana leaves. These are perfectly functional for holding a huge range of food types and are entirely biodegadeable. Also in terms of urban composting, im fairly sure that i've seen window box composters on the internet before, the compost from which can then be used to help grow window box herbs to improve your cooking, its a win win situation.
