What’s so bad about plastic sandwich bags?
While disposable plastic bags may seem convenient, they’re definitely doing more harm than good! Plastic bags are derived from synthetic chemicals non-renewable resources. Regular plastic wraps and sandwich bags are not designed to be reused, washed, or used to cook food. They are also often considered toxic to our environment, especially our sea life! Even if your plastic bags are labelled as BPA free, plastics may still contain a number of synthetic chemicals which are then in direct contact with our food.
What are the benefits of using Stasher sandwich bags
Stasher’s revolutionary silicone sandwich bags are a healthy way to pack your kid’s lunches each morning as they contain absolutely no plastic! Instead Stasher are made using silica which is derived from abundant natural resources. Silicone has a long list of benefits as this material has a very low chemical activity, can withstand extremely high temperatures, is highly flexible, odourless and can be reused over and over again. These Stasher bags are multi purpose too as they can be used for more than storing sandwiches! You can use them to keep snacks fresh, organise school supplies or pack toiletries when travelling. These incredible bags can also be used for microwaving food and freezing leftovers. Your meals will be protected from freezer burn! I love how you can also throw these bags into the dishwasher for reuse. So easy! You can also write notes or your kids’ names on the front with dry-erase markers. There’s not much these handy self sealing bags can’t do!
