Ford And McDonald's Are Making Car Parts Out Of Coffee Waste

Here's a business team-up you didn't see coming. Ford and McDonald's are working together, using leftover waste from McDonald's coffee to make car parts.

The process uses 'coffee chaff' - the skin of coffee beans that peels off during roasting. That chaff is incorporated into the plastic housing for headlights.

Ford officials say the coffee-infused plastic is lighter and more renewable than the previous version made with talc. Other plant-based materials made from soy, wheat, coconut, and tomato plants have also been developed by Ford in recent years
