Frequently Asked Questions
When should I use paper bags instead of reusable Stasher bags?
Use Recyclable Paper Bags for moments when reusables are not practical or might not make it home, like school snacks, field trips, team treats, parties, or sharing baked goods. For wet foods, freezer storage, meal prep, or long-term reuse, choose reusable silicone Stasher bags.
What foods are these bags best for?
They’re best for dry snacks, sandwiches, baked goods, and lunchbox items like crackers, pretzels, chips, cookies, muffins, bagels, and sandwiches with drier fillings. Use silicone Stasher bags for saucy, juicy, or liquid foods.
Is it pet-safe and easy to clean?
Yes. The collection is made from platinum food-grade silicone and is designed for repeated food use. It’s dishwasher-safe, freezer-safe, microwave-safe, and oven-safe up to 425°F. Air dry thoroughly or wipe clean before storing.
Are they waterproof or leakproof?
No. These bags are made from paper and are not designed to be waterproof or leakproof. They can handle everyday dry snacks and sandwiches, but wet or saucy foods should go in a reusable silicone Stasher bag.
How do you properly recycle the paper bags?
Our Recyclable Paper Bags are designed to be recycled with cardboard in most
municipal recycling programs. We recommend: removing any excess food residue, folding them flat, placing them in your paper/cardboard recycling bin. One important note: the white paper backing of the seal is NOT recyclable. And please always check with your local municipality for specific recycling guidelines, as programs can vary by area.
