Life without plastic just got easier

I confess: I like using plastic for a lot of things.

Honestly, plastic in its myriad forms is pretty darn hard to escape.

Plastic: You’re typing on it, right?

However, there is a growing movement among the eco-set to move away (far, far away) from the ubiquitous substance.

I was recently asked about alternatives to plastic sandwich bags — and even alternatives plastic-lined reusable sandwich wraps — and I came up short.

Then I found this site, Life Without Plastic, which offers a variety of wood, glass, ceramic and high grade stainless steel.

Warning: These items are pricey (and heavy)!

But … they don’t all come from China and they’re kind of cool looking.

Also, though most glass containers from other places have plastic lids, these have metal ones, quite a novelty, I think.

They also have cute kids toys, BPA-free baby bottles and really cute canvas lunch bags and veggie sacks.

Awesome!
