As Eco-novice readers know, I love reusable bags! I'm happy to say that I haven't purchased a box of disposable plastic baggies in several years. I have reusable bags in many different shapes and sizes and made with many different materials.
Recently we have been test driving Eco-ditty's reusable sandwich and snack bags. Eco-ditty food bags are
- Made in Colorado
- Made with 100% organic cotton fabrics (GOTS certified and fair trade)
- Available in a variety of attractive and stylish fabrics
- Have an undyed organic cotton liner -- no synthetics, plastics or chemicals touching your food
- Printed with low-impact inks and dyes
- Hook and loop closure
- Washable by hand, machine or dishwasher (line dry is recommended -- although I accidentally dried mine in the dryer and they are still fine)
The sandwich bag measures 7.25 x 6 inches and the snack bag measures 6 x 4 inches. In a perfect world, all my reusable food packaging would be plastic-free. But let's be honest, I won't be wrapping a PB&J in a cotton food bag anytime soon. However, I like to use plastic-free bags whenever possible. Lots of foods work well in cotton bags, especially just for daily lunch fare: turkey sandwich, apple slices, carrot sticks, crackers, cookies, etc. And then for some foods, a cotton bag is ideal. Grapes, for example. When I take grapes in a lunch bag, I usually stick a washcloth or reusable napkin in there because I've just washed them and don't want them to be soggy. The Eco-ditty bag was just the perfect thing to take my grapes in.
What could you store in an Eco-ditty sandwich bag?

You've really captured my attention with greatest appreciation. Your blogs are always great and invited but this one has really motivated me in using the Cotton Bag avoiding the plastic bags.
