Bag-E-Wash: Re-Use Plastic Baggies
Plastic grocery bags have gotten a lot of press lately. San Francisco recently banned them; our own home city of Boston is talking about similar legislation. From our perspective, your best bet is not to use them at all. Invest in an EZ Bag (or a bunch of them, as we recently did).
But what about plastic baggies? They're convenient for storing and transporting food, and they seem more durable than your run-of-the-mill grocery bag. It's hard to eliminate their use completely. We suggest washing and re-using them.
We've written before about the wooden plastic bag dryer, a multi-pronged dowel which allows you to wash and air dry up to 8 plastic bags at a time.
Jeannie Piekos, founder of Bag-E-Wash, has another idea. She invented Bag-E-Wash, a product that allows you to wash plastic baggies in the dishwasher.
Bag-E-Wash is a dishwasher accessory that allows you to easily clean and reuse your plastic food storage bags. Made of nylon, it is designed to hold bags open and secure for efficient and sanitary cleaning and drying.
To use Bag-E-Wash, you snap together the parts, place 'em on the bottom rack of your dishwasher, and connect them to the rack to hold 'em in place. You snap the bags into the clips, and voila, they'll stay open during the wash cycle, and will air dry along with your dishes. No fuss, no muss.
Bag-E-Wash is adjustable for use with quart and gallon-size bags.
Available at Bag-E-Wash.
