5. Guessing Why It's Edible

Short biodegradability (weeks) suggests susceptible to oxidation.
We have way more enzymes in our digestive system than would occur naturally (if at all), or enzymatic water treatment plants.
If it takes weeks in refuse, it would decompose/digest in our bodies in seconds! Oxidative species, blood oxygen and enzymes? Accelerates those reaction by at least 3, to as many as 5 orders of magnitude.
Since it's plant based, the decomposition products are not toxic or rare in our systems. Practically no health risk!
This is a very cool invention!
