Beeswax Food Wrap

🌿 CLEAN & SAFE

Wrapping produce, covering bowls, and replacing cling wrap

Materials

Organic cotton
Beeswax
Tree resin
Jojoba oil

Common claims

Plastic-free wrap
Reusable
Compostable

Concerns / watch-outs

Not suitable for raw meat due to reusable nature — risk of cross-contamination
Not vegan (contains beeswax); plant-based wax alternatives exist

Notes

An excellent plastic wrap replacement for produce, cheese, and bowl covers. Compostable at end of life.

Cleaner alternatives

Pyrex Glass Food Storage Containers

🌿 CLEAN & SAFE

Storing leftovers and meal prep with oven-safe glass

Materials

Tempered soda-lime glass
Plastic or silicone lids

Common claims

Oven, microwave, and dishwasher safe
BPA-free lids
Non-porous glass

Concerns / watch-outs

Modern Pyrex sold in the US uses tempered soda-lime glass, not borosilicate — more susceptible to thermal shock than older versions
Plastic lids may contain BPA; look for confirmed BPA-free lids or use silicone alternatives

Notes

Pyrex glass is one of the most recommended non-toxic food storage options. The glass body is completely inert. Replace plastic lids if they become scratched or stained.
