Sila Silicone Storage Bags Review

I'm so addicted to getting things that I can reuse! I have had cloth bags for years. They are good for many things, such as daily lunches. Recently I've been getting and using silicone bags. 

Each bag comes with a different colored top! I can say, "Mica get me the bag out the freezer that has the red top." He'll come up with the right bag! Yay! The tops are hard for kids to slip on and off. They are even hard for adults to slip on and off the first few times.


Sila Silicone Bags are Wonderful for: 
  • Soups
  • Produce
  • Nuts
  • Seeds
  • Dried Beans

and much more! 

I don't know if I'll use them for soups. For us glass containers that you can just throw in the microwave are easy peasy for soups. I will use these for berry picking, tomatoes that we've processed, but haven't canned yet. I also make a wellness drink that's packed with anti inflammatory goodness! Usually when I make that I put 1/2 of it in the freezer. These bags are wonderful for storing that in! It's so wonderful that they can go in the freezer! 

I like the bags for produce because they keep the moisture of the fruits and veggies locked in. Net bags don't do that. I'm often left with rubbery tasting veggies. Net bags do work for bananas. We take them out anyhow.

Airtight and Leakproof!

Sila Silicone Storage Bags are both. The silicone is food grade! They wash up easily.

Where to Get Them:

Get the 4 set on Amazon Prime for $15.99. https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=me%3DAZ2BIF8I4TNVQ&field-keywords=reusable+snack+bags

What type of bags do you use in the kitchen?

Reusable Silicone Food Storage Bags Review

I try and do my best to recycle, compost, and reuse.

I recycle the paper at work. Travis uses the compost for the garden, and we pretty recently got compost worms. We reuse lunch bags, water bottles, most sandwich bags, and grocery bags. Of course we reuse things to create art. 

I'm a big believer in doing all I can on my end to help our home. Am I perfect, no. I could always do more.

I'm happy to introduce you to Silicone Food Storage Bags!


I know we'll use them a lot! 

Right now I have a 1/2 of a ham in one of them. Typically I'd put ham in a ziplock plastic, throw away bag. Not any more.


I have net produce bags. I like using them, but often they don't hold moisture in the produce. I can see using these bags for produce!

They also hold liquids. In fact there's measurements on it. Berries that I pick would work great in these bags!

Perks and Downfalls:

They are easy to clean!

The red sliding bar is not easy to slip on and off. I think I have it down. One came slightly cracked on the inside. It still works just fine.


Buy It:


Sizes:

2 Large Bags that carries 50 ounces or 6 cups.

1 Small Bag that carries 30 ounces or 4 cups.

What would you use in these bags?

MIRA Reusable Produce Bags. Set of 5.

One thing I use a lot of is reusable bags. I have produce bags, but I needed more of them. We go through produce like crazy around here! I'm so happy that I got a set of 5 MIRA Reusable Produce Bags.


I like this set. All the bags are the same size. Each bag measures 12 X 14 and is large enough to hold a good amount of produce. It's not the best for garlic, or small things that you may get. I get multiple things often like carrots, celery, sweet peppers, onions, tomatoes, kale, collard greens, green beans, mangos, bananas, and more.


I love that they are made out of a see through mesh. The people that check me out need to see what I'm getting. It helps that I know what's in each bag as well. 

I also love the draw string. That is one feature I dislike on my other bags. There's a plastic thing on my other bags, if that falls off my bag is useless it seems. With MIRA Reusable Produce Bags I don't have a plastic thing on the string. 


You can see that the clump of bananas fit in the bag well! It doesn't feel like the bag is going to rip.


Cost: $29.99, but on sale for $15. That may seem steep, but remember you're using these over and over again. That's less plastic consumption.

WEXY Lunch and Munch Bags Review

I have the wonderful chance to tell you about a product that I had previously never heard of before. I love learning about newish products on the market.


We use a lot of cloth sandwich bags in our house. Most of the time I try and use the fabric ones. We just wash them, and use them again.

At school they always want throw away lunches for field trips. With camp I tried to make things disposable as well.

WEXY Lunch and Munch Bags are snack bags that are:
  • Biodegradable
  • Disposable
  • Recylable
  • Reusable
  • Eco-Friendly
  • BPA Free
  • Meet FDA Standards
  • Made in the USA
 I feel much better sending my kids to school with WEXY bags in their lunch! What's great is that they can throw them away, or bring them home to get washed and used again.


There are 28 bags total. Each bag has a monster on it. The monsters have names. 

Meet Scout the Soccer Player, Sammy the Surfer and Bailey the Bubble Maker. There's also a red one that is called Dusty the Diver.


Sammy the Surfer is Isaak's favorite!


WEXY Lunch and Munch Bags are 5"x6". It's a perfect size for fruits, veggies, or any other snack. They were created here in the US by two Moms. Carie and Tracey believe in having a healthy lifestyle. They wanted something snack wise that their kids could take to camp, play dates, and more. WEXY doesn't have all the worries that other plastic bags have connected to them.

Where to Buy it?

You can buy it straight from WEXY on sale for $3.99.
Amazon sells them for $5.99.
