I think there is a significant need for edible airbags. Let's say you crash down an embankment in the middle of the night......The airbag deploys and saves your life, but the car is crushed around you and you're trapped. It might be hours before you're found!!! An edible airbag could then provide you with a source of nutrtion until help arrives.
I want to credit this idea to Gilbert Gnarley and his friends out at the Mount Pia Zadora Nursing Home.
