Now that I’ve been using reusable sandwich and snack bags regularly for over six years, it’s not even weird anymore…to me.
Every so often, I see myself through someone else’s eyes as I unzip a cloth bag full of trail mix or perhaps allergy-free pumpkin muffins, and I wonder what they are thinking. Reusable bags in general are much more mainstream than when I started using them, so it may not be the first time someone has seen a reusable sandwich bag, but they’re still a pretty rare beast out in the wild.
Do they think I’m super crunchy? Super frugal? Super DIY? Do they figure I made them myself right after my underwater basket weaving class?
I don’t know, but what I DO know is that there’s no going back to plastic. The reusable bags are just too cute, too waste-reducing, too…reusable. I love that I never run out of bags, and I love that we don’t throw all that plastic away. I can pack a waste-free lunch almost 100% of the time (minus an apple core or something here and there).
And now I’m going to peer pressure you a bit (a lot). Our whole family has tested out enough different ones that I’m confident I can recommend the BEST style and brand of reusable snack and sandwich bag for your family, kids or adults.
