g our landfills to the brim. In an effort to cut down on her children’s lunch waste – the plastic and paper baggies, disposable utensils and food wrappers – Sandra Harris developed a line of cotton lunch bags and stainless steel food containers and began selling her items at craft fairs in 2008. Today, ECOlunchboxes and snack containers can be found at several different retailers, from The Container Store and most recently Target as well as on their comprehensive website.
Their different containers and lunch boxes are perfectly sized for the proper portions and allow you to pack healthy foods (free of plastics) for yourself or your kiddos. Why stainless steel? Well, it’s non-toxic, highly durable, and free of the leaching that can occur with plastics. With a little extra planning, you can save lots of money and thousands of pieces of trash from piling up in our landfills and oceans.
