Whatever plastic bags can do, these can do better.
Behold, the silicone bag. In the last three or four years these airtight, dishwasher safe, and, most importantly, re-useable bags have saved millions of plastic sandwich baggies from ending up in our landfills .
Even if you've never used one yourself, you've probably seen the original Stasher bags. Stasher is made of 100 percent food grade silicone and has won handfuls of design awards for its innovative engineering. Not unlike Ziploc to the world of singe-use plastic bags, Stasher is the queen of the reusable airtight bag-iverse. Before I even did this review I was a loyal fan.
Stasher did, in fact, beat out its silicone competitors. The bags are super squishy in texture—including the seal. When they first came, I was certain that the seal wouldn't hold. You do have to be careful about pressing the seal closed all the way, but when you close them properly they never come open or leak. I put juicy cut fruit and watery cucumber wedges in each one for airplane travel and never had a single spill.
The stand-up variety was probably my favorite. It takes up a bit more room when stored, but it's perfect for pouring nuts, grains, and seeds from bulk bins. An Amazon reviewer adds that "the wide bottom doesn't squish delicate foods like lettuce or chips," which is ideal, if you, like me, have a salt n' vinegar problem.
Some Amazon reviewers said their Stasher bags ripped or seemed thin. I have never had an issue with this. After four months of use, my original Stasher bags are still in near perfect condition. They've stood up to microwaving, sous-vide cooking, both freezer and fridge storage, and plenty of everyday use and washing.
