reusable snack/sandwich bags

[newbiemom]

two questions -
do you have any specific brand recommendations (and if possible, I'd love to have one where I can put in fruit, not just dry foods)? and

do they keep food fresh throughout the day (I've read some reviews where crackers tend to get stale after a few hours, etc)?

I use these (http://www.reuseit.com/store/fresh-snack-pack-sandwich-p-1642.html) for sandwiches and these (http://www.reuseit.com/store/reuseit%E2%84%A2-snack-stuff-sack-recycled-p-1378.html) for all sorts of other stuff. I love the sack ones!

That website looks like it has a lot of great things! I think I'm going to have to place an order. Thanks for the links.

These are great for sandwiches - easy to use, and size is really adjustable:

But I am also looking for a good, and washable, snack bag for things like goldfish and craisins. I like the vinyl better than cloth for that (we have cloth snack bags, but they seem to get a little gross after awhile, even though we wash them regularly).

You know what I just posted a similar question in the Kid Food forum but it didn't get much response. I have checked out the reusit site but I felt like I would be more comfortable with and more likely to use bags with zip closures and there aren't any on that site.

I did a little searching on etsy and came up with these options:

OriginalsByLauren (http://www.etsy.com/shop/OriginalsbyLauren?section_id=6983603)

LoveForEarth (http://www.etsy.com/shop/LoveForEarth?section_id=6132571)

FairyThread (http://www.etsy.com/listing/50606620/sponge-bob-eco-friendly-reusable)

I have one of each except the last one waiting in my shopping cart and I'm just waiting until payday to pull the trigger I guess. (Mini-hijack: if anyone has any feedback on any of those that'd be great)

Hope that helps

The Love for Earth ones look amazing - thanks for the tip! I need to stock up on those...

Thanks for these links! I love the zippers on these.

Yeah those do look the best (and they are the most expensive) but too bad they don't have any fun patterns!
