Thrifty Thursday (Eco Lunch Gear)

eco lunch gear

Is your family trying to be more eco friendly?  If so you may want to check out eco lunch gear.  Eco lunch gear was created by Tina Beatty because she was trying to find an eco friendly solution to their lunch packing routine.  She tried other products but wasn't satisfied with the results so she came up with her own.  Eco lunch gear is made in Michigan and nothing is outsourced. 

Here is what the Jumbo Snack Bags look like when they are completely opened up.  Notice how easy they are to clean.  No crumbs stuck in corners.  They can be hand washed or machine washed so clean up is a breeze.  Also we love how these open up the whole way so that they can be used as a placemat...no more worries about dirty picnic tables.

Wondering why there are two velcro tabs so close together?  Wonder no more,  before you machine wash them you just fold the one tab onto the other so that your eco lunch gear doesn't get stuck to your other laundry....brilliant!

Here is my 7 year old's sandwich getting ready for school...

Just fold over both flaps...

fold up the bottom, and close the top flap...

 

and into the lunch box it goes!

Along with the Sandwich Wrap and Jumbo Snack bag shown here, they also make Tissue Pouches, Cinch Sacks, Cloth Napkins, Snack Bags, and Placemats.  And all come in a variety of patterns to choose from.

 

They use 100% Certified Organic Cotton.

 

The sandwich wraps and snack bags are lined with polyurethane coated nylon (kept on the inside away from the food) to keep the food fresh and prevents stains, mildew, and rot.

All fabrics are pre-washed before being cut and sewn to avoid puckering.

Here's what we thought:

Mommy in GA says: We were excited to get get the eco lunchgear.  The kids' love the fact that we got the Halloween pattern (that would be the orange shown above!!)

They are super easy to use and you are saving a ton of money and  a little piece of earth too!!

Also another good thing about the eco lunch gear is no more worries at the park  about the dirty picnic tables because you just undo the velcro and lay it flat and tada you have a place mat!!!

We are very impressed with the product and hope yall like it too!!!

Mommy in PA says:  I totally love these!  This makes going greener quite a bit easier.  I love how they are easy to clean, I always hated the crumbs in the corners problem we used to have.  These are super easy to use so even elementary kids will have no problems getting their sandwiches out.  I also love all the cute pattern choices (there's something for everybody).
