Ditch Plastic Snack Bags for Something a Bit... Wiser
We know that if you shop at Sweetbottoms, you are exploring the realm of natural parenting. Perhaps you use cloth diapers and training pants on your children or even use cloth mama pads for yourself. If you do, you know just how much money you can save by avoiding disposable products. Now, expand your mind to non-disposable options beyond the bathroom.
How about packing your kids' snacks on the go in cost-effective, eco-friendly snack baggies that are cute to boot?
Sweetbottoms has just the solution with Planet Wise sandwich and snack bags. Available in 4 different styles, these snack bags are leak-proof, made with CPSIA-approved, FDA food-safe materials, and will save you lots of money in the long run on plastic wrap, aluminum foil, and plastic baggies.
-The Reusable Sandwich Bag. This square-shaped style with a fold-over flap is designed especially for a sandwich. A long, horizontal strip of velcro seals the flap, keeping the crumbs inside.
-The Reusable Sandwich Wrap. This square-shaped, fit-for-a-sandwich baggie is a neat option if you want a 3-in-1: 1) Unfold the wrap and use as a clean surface to prepare your sandwich. 2) fold in the sides, and it's a baggie. 3) Have your kid unfold and use as a placemat when its time to eat! The top flap folds down and seals with a short, vertical strip of velcro.
-The Reusable Snack Bag. Here's a rectangular container that allows your kid to dig in and eat snacks without having to dig too deep. Perfect for pretzels, trail mix, chopped veggies, dried fruit, and more, this baggie seals with a horizontal strip of velcro on its fold-over flap.
Still made from adorable fabric that covers the back side and the fold-over, velcro-sealing flap, this baggie has a clear front side that allows you to see what goodies are inside. This style is the perfect size for snacks, leftovers, and even sandwiches.
The cleaning part's easy. Just wash with warm, soapy water, or even better, throw in the washing machine -- just make sure you towel-dry or air dry. Do not put in the dishwasher or microwave. These snack baggies were especially designed for easy washing with angled corners so you don't have to go digging to expel the extra crumbs.
Our landfills are peppered each day with plastic products, most of which do not decompose, so get excited about the favor you'd be doing for your planet. Even purchasing one or two bags to supplement your plastic snack bag usage helps a lot. Planet Wise snack bags are also free of PVC, BPA, phthalate, latex, and lead -- and not every plastic baggie can meet those standards.
So are you ready to pack your kids' snacks with a clean conscience and some added fun? Get excited over the 16+ fabric patterns to choose among, and let your kids join the fun and pick their favorites. You might even find that you want a few snack baggies for yourself!
