The Apple EarPod packaging that comes with the new iPod touch and iPod nano is biodegradable, reports Mashable.

The EarPod case doesn't completely disappear, but when placed in warm water, it pretty soon becomes pliable, and soon falls apart. After a few minutes, the result is a bunch of pulp (see inset photo). Do not, however, try to dip the iPhone 5's EarPod case into water. That thing is all hard plastic.
