Let me just say how much I HATE packing peanuts. We are moving our store 2 stores down and the darn things I have to deal with in cleaning and packing our packing stuff. Isn't that redundant? hehe Anyway I just can't stand how they feel and stick and ick. I feel like they are not healthy too.

They make some now out of cornstarch that disintegrate when they get wet. I'm not sure where you get them, but my parents ordered something and it was packed with them. The dogs kept eating them.

styrofoam peanuts will make dogs sick because they can get lodged in their digestive track. The corn ones usually won't make dogs sick unless they have an allergy.
