Potato starch has a higher percentage of amylopectin than either corn or wheat starch. Amylopectin gives starch its structural integrity, so it helps make If You Care Certified Compostable Bags stronger than bags made from corn starch.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style='box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; color: rgb(64, 64, 64); font-family: \"nunito sans\", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: justify; border-radius: 0px !important;'\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style='box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; color: rgb(64, 64, 64); font-family: \"nunito sans\", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: justify; border-radius: 0px !important;'\u003e\u003cb style=\"box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; border-radius: 0px !important;\"\u003eAny Other Reasons for Potato Starch?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style='box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; color: rgb(64, 64, 64); font-family: \"nunito sans\", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: justify; border-radius: 0px !important;'\u003eThe potato starch used to make If You Care Certified Compostable Bags comes from starch potatoes, which are not grown as a food source, but only for starch production. These potatoes are too high in starch to be good for food. Therefore, there is no diversion from food supplies. To produce the same amount of starch from these potatoes as from corn requires 40% less land. These potatoes require no irrigation, and need only normal rainfall. Corn requires much more water.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style='box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; color: rgb(64, 64, 64); font-family: \"nunito sans\", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: justify; border-radius: 0px !important;'\u003e\u003cb style=\"box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; border-radius: 0px !important;\"\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style='box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; color: rgb(64, 64, 64); font-family: \"nunito sans\", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: justify; border-radius: 0px !important;'\u003e\u003cb style=\"box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; border-radius: 0px !important;\"\u003eWhy Use If You Care Certified Compostable Bags?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style='box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased; color: rgb(64, 64, 64); font-family: \"nunito sans\", sans-serif; font-size: 15px; text-align: justify; border-radius: 0px !important;'\u003eApproximately 80 million tons of waste (U.S. EPA figures) which goes to landfill annually is material which under the right conditions, can be turned into compost, including food scraps, yard trimmings and non-recyclable paper.
