Juice Pouch Totes

Does anyone know how to make the juice pouch bags and lunch boxes? We are trying to go green and save money. Thanks.

The Gerber juice bottles are made of similar plastic to tuppeware. Also I find minute maid has some heavier materials like this that can be washed over and over without worrying about the chemical content. So between the 4 oz, 6 oz and 8 oz, just put a skrew cover on them and use them. When out of the school lunch mode, I also put my honey in these, rather than the large gallon jars it I get it in. Can also use for craft supplies in the cupboard too. So many uses, recycle and still not expensive to start with. I like the MM Apple juice bottle--I had bought a case as I had recipes I used occ that needed 8 oz apple juice and I did not want to buy a can. Now that I have some of the bottles, I can BUY a large can or container, then pour into the bottle and freeze what I don't need at the time.

I bought a small metal water container - holds about 12 ounces - from Amazon. The small drink containers made of plastic are not healthy, & the pouches send more trash to the landfill. The metal one should last forever, & I think you'll save a lot by using it everyday in a child's lunch. They come in different colors & I would write or etch the child's name on it. Good for you to be concerned. I am sure you will pack healthy things - so much better. Good luck!

Just use a thermos for drinks. These are the ultimate in green as they are used over and over again. Or use some other bottle multiple times like a water/soda bottle.
