The extinction of plastic bags is coming, so you may as well prepare. Reusable Stasher bags are a silicone alternative to disposable zipper-locked sandwich and storage bags. The company makes them in a range of translucent colors in five sizes — pocket, snack, sandwich, half-gallon and 12-cup stand-up. All have press-and-seal closures and are suitable for microwave, freezer, dishwasher and sous-vide use. The downside is that they are bulky to store and do not conform, in an airtight manner, to the items inside.
Stasher bags, $7.99 to $19.99, stasherbag.com.
