East of Broken Bow
One place I order from uses the biodegradable packing peanuts.
They don't stick to you with static electricity, at least not nearly to the extent of Styrofoam ones.
Also, they dissolve in water, and are made from plant cellulose, so you can scatter them in your garden, turn on the sprinkler, and they sort of 'melt' into the ground. Can't say they have much fertilizer value, but never hurt anything as far as I can tell.

Biodegradable packing peanuts are made from naturally derived starches like wheat and cornstarch. Entirely plant-based, biodegradable packing peanuts will dissolve in water, making it impossible for them to wind up polluting oceans, lakes, rivers, or waterways.


That said, should a wild critter get ahold of one of these starchy-puffs, they won’t experience any significant health risks should they choose to chow down.
