Natural Value Waxed Paper Bags -- 60 Bags

Made from Unbleached Fibers. Perfect For Use in the Microwave. Will Not Contaminate Ground Water. Non-Toxic When Incinerated. Landfill Safe. Live Well.  Spend Less. Our Natural Waxed Paper and Waxed Paper Bags are unique products that are both ecologically sound and incredibly useful.  . Totally unscathed by any sort of bleaching process the natural brown color of our Natural Waxed Paper and Waxed Paper Bags is reminiscent of a kindler gentler era.  But don't let the "old-fashioned" look fool you our Natural Waxed paper is great for use in the microwave and is the most ecologically sound food wrap available.  . And the 2 3/4" pleat of the Natural Waxed Paper bags makes them the perfect choice for packaging everything from your heartiest sandwich creation to a handful of crispy fresh carrot sticks to individual cookies and muffins.  Live well.  Spend less.  Feel good about the little things you do tomake the world a better place.

natural! - the solution to plastic smell
 June 4, 2013
"We love these bags (and the wax paper too). I use them daily to pack sandwiches, nuts, crackers, etc.. for my husband. The are natural with no harmful chemicals. I had been looking for a solution to that plastic smell from plastic wrap and bags - this product was it!"

Hard to find product
 March 28, 2013
"Sheer nostalgia, my childhood consisted of tin lunch boxes and sandwich in wax paper bag. Wonderful. Now I collect tin lunch boxes and use them for my lunches. I was soo missing those wax paper bags. Now I know they are better health wax for the microwave. YAY!"

exactly what I wanted
 March 21, 2013
"Waxed paper bags are handy for so many things, and have extremely limited availability. I would much rather use a waxed paper bag than plastic. It's also better for the environment."

Alternative to plastic
 March 6, 2013
"These waxed bags are a good alternative to plastic. My husband uses them for his daily sandwich and they work fine. However, they are not good for long term storage only foods you are going to eat that day."

ECO-FRIENDLY FAVORITE
 March 5, 2013
"I was discussing plastic bags with someone recently & we were trying to think of a more eco-friendly alternative when I recalled the waxed bags so popular years ago. I then tried to find them in a local store with no luck. Since I use the eco friendly baking cups that Vitacost carries I searched for the waxed bags...voila!! These bags are great & easier to recycle than plastic...I have even warmed foods in the microwave using these bags. THESE BAGS ARE UNBLEACHED, NON-TOXIC, LANDFILL SAFE & AFFORDABLE !!"

Bag stays closed and seals in moisture, large size
 January 14, 2013
"This is a better sandwich/snack bag than anything plastic. Not only for the environment but for food as well. The brown color keeps the light out of the bag, there is just enough wax, but not too much - to keep the bag closed once you fold it over. It also holds moisture into the bread, so your sandwich never ends up dry. I don't feel guilty at all packing my kids lunches every day. The bag is large - it easily fits a big sandwich. Not feeling guilty is probably my favorite reason I use these."

Works good for some purposes
 November 7, 2012
"I use plastic bags to freeze serving sizes of food and such and this is not so good for that unless you put it in this paper bag and then in a plastic bad which kind of defeats the purpose. I love the fact that it is paper, yet if you are packaging something that you don't want much or any air getting to it, it doesn't work so well. It does help to have this around to use when you can use the paper though, instead of the plastic bags."

This product stops me from using toxic plastic
 October 11, 2012
"Wax paper bags from the older days long ago! They save money for doing the many things we wrap to put into the refrig. Most of all, the need to use toxic plastic wraps to heat or cover foods has disappeared from this house. Great for the health of my family & for the enviroment."

"I love being able to divide up single portions of chicken/fish/meat in these bags, then put them altogether in a larger bag to put in the freezer. None of the problems that plastic wrap has, esp. when frozen. Also great for packing lunches."

"I love these things. They are a great replacement for plastic baggies, although they don't have a closure. So you have to fold the top or something if you want to keep the goods inside. microwaveable too."
