Yummi Pouch for Back to School Lunchboxes

Yummi Pouch for Back to School Lunchboxes

Yummi Pouch sent us a fabulous collection of squeezable food pouches and reusable food pouches to send the kiddos back to school with this fall.  We have kiddos from 3-8 around here.  The 6, 7, and 8 year olds are very picky eaters and take their lunch to school EVERY single day, so they will get a fabulous workout.  The 3 yr old just uses hers for a true snack pack.  😉  However, she thinks she’s as big as all of the other kids around and doesn’t understand why she can’t take her own lunch every day!

Yummi Pouch reusable food pouches encourage healthy snacks for active kids. They’re eco-friendly food pouches are freezer safe, dishwasher safe, BPA-free, Phthalate-free, and can be filled with healthy blended snacks and easily taken on-the-go, no spoon required!

When I first encountered squeezable food pouches, I thought it was pretty strange.  I was babysitting a little one and just couldn’t wrap my brain around it.  However, that baby is now a toddler and absolutely LOVES squeeze pouches.  She’ll eat almost anything, as long as it’s in a pouch!

The bigger kids LOVE the squeeze pouches as well.  With them taking a lunchbox every day, I think about the excess of non-biodegradable materials going into landfills days after day.  This is something I was always concerned about when I was teaching.  I always thought we should have the kids separate trash into a food can, paper goods, and then non-biodegradable materials.  This way the food could be given to a local farmer to feed his pigs.  Then the other materials could be recycled as appropriate.

With the Yummi Pouch much of the nonfood waste is eliminated.  This is ideal for any child with a lunchbox, especially those who take a lunch from home every single day.  With all of  the kids having a love for apple sauce and yogurt, it would be easy to buy the larger containers and fill the plastic pouches each night, at a fraction of the cost compared to buying prefilled pouches.

The Yummi Pouch Cloth Snack Bags eliminate the need for plastic baggies.  They’re available in snack, sandwich, and everything size.  As an adult, I’d rather use them than a see through bag, they’re so cute!  I can also see using them in my purse to hold cosmetics, my diabetes testing supplies, diabetic snacks, and more.

Yummi Pouch can even serve double duty in your child’s lunchbox.  After filling the pouch with yogurt, applesauce, pudding, or other squeezable food, stick the pouch in the freezer.  This allows the pouch to serve as an ice pack to keep the rest of the yummies cold until lunch time.  There’s also a neoprene pouch available to help keep the contents cold.

There are a TON of other uses for the Yummi Pouch, too!  They’re great for almost every member of the family, from the two legged to the four legged.  Use the in the kitchen, on the go, camping, traveling, and playing.
