Edible tableware

[1] Edible tableware can be homemade[2] and has also been mass-produced by some companies, and can be prepared using many different foods.

For example, bread which has had its center removed can be used for soups, and cheese can be baked in an oven and formed into the desired shape.

[7] In North and Central America, the tortilla is used as a utensil to scoop various foods such as salsa and bean dips.

[8] Foods such as crackers, corn and tortilla chips, crudités, bread and cheese sticks can also be used as edible utensils.

[12] In 1562, a recipe for edible tableware and cutlery, such as knives, forks, chopsticks and spoons, was published by Alexius Pedemontanus.
