Cade's 2nd Birthday Bash - snackTAXI Review & Giveaway! US 8/4

 

Snack Taxi 

snackTAXI is reusable Snack and Sandwich Sacks. snackTAXI is the environmentally friendly and reusable ziploc plastic bags! Use snackTAXI over and over again, instead of sending hundreds, thousands or even millions of plastic baggies to the landfills. snackTAXI's are made in a rural Massachusetts workshop by local sewers. snackTAXI is committedto keeping their business local and will never outsource their labor. I absolutely love local businesses, whether they are local to where I live or just local to the origin of the business, such as with snackTAXI! 
 
We received two sandwich-sacks from snackTAXI to review. One is the jigsaw sandwich-sack and the other is a pandas NUT FREE sandwich-sack. I love both of the prints, but the pandas are my favorite. They are so cute, plus it is NUT FREE. Cade has a cashew allergy and we have been advised per his pediatrician to avoid ALL tree nuts for now, the NUT FREE on the sandwich-sack helps me feel reassured that if he were to be with a baby sitter or relative who may have forgotten about this allergy that the sandwich-sack tag will help remind them. The NUT FREE label also will keep the two sandwich-sacks separate so I wont have to worry and ask myself which one I usually put any products in that contain nuts.

 I have roughly 2 cups of grapes in the jigsaw sandwich-sack and roughly 2 cups of baby carrots in the pandas NUT FREE sandwich-sack. I was still able to securely close both sandwich-sacks. There is this seal that seems to form once you close the sack. Not a single drop of water came out of either sack when I turned them upside down. 

I rinsed mine clean as it was just water from the grapes and carrots in the sack. When I did so I filled them full of water and the water just slowly dripped out of the bottom two corners on each sack, due to the weight/pressure of the amount of water in them. The snackTAXI sacks are lined with a waterproof inner. 

snackTAXIs are machine washable, the materials they are made with are FREE of lead, phthalates and BPA. 
Did you know the US alone adds 20 million plastic baggies to landfills every single day?! That is a LOT! Each reusable bag you use keeps as many as 1,000 plastic bags out of the waste stream. 

snackTAXI offers an array of different sacks, aprons, etc. Check them out and purchase your sack or other product(s) here
