- Reusable Bread Bag for the Win -

                   A reusable bread bag helps you reduce the amount of plastic you are using and also cuts down your food waste. The New Living bread bag is made out of recycled plastic bottles, which means that you are also helping find purpose for plastic that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill or polluting the ocean!

In this blog, we talk about the impact of plastic on the planet, as well as how a reusable bread bag can help lower your impact in this domain.

What is Wrong with Plastic?

We are living in a plastic age. Our consumption of often single use un-recyclable plastics is damaging the planet, and especially our oceans.

This plastic pollution crisis poses a danger not only to (marine) animals and ecosystems, but also us humans. 8 million pieces of plastic enter the ocean every single day, according to Surfers Against Sewage.

When trash is left in the ocean, landfills, or wherever else in the natural environment, it does not decompose. Instead, it falls apart into smaller microscopic plastic particles: micro-plastics.

Since many of these micro-plastics are present even in our drinking water, this can be a danger not only to animals but also to us.

You can also use the bag to freeze a loaf of bread, which will last in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thanks to the technology of the bag, it will not sustain freezer burn and remain fresh for whenever you are ready to eat it. 

Caring for your Reusable Bread Bag

Caring for a reusable bread bag is very easy – you don’t even have to wash it after every use, just pull out the inner lining and dispose of any crumbs. Once every few uses, hand washing it in lukewarm water is more than enough to clean the bag.

We do not recommend putting it in the washing machine, as it could get damaged or worn quicker.

It is clear that we need to find ways to reduce our impact on the environment. Innovations such as the reusable bread bag we talked about can help decrease your environmental impact drastically.

Choose more eco-friendly alternatives every day – if we all make small changes like this, we can make a big difference overall.
