Pack Your Sandwich with the Wrap-N-Mat

Part of the changes we have tried to make in improving our eating is packing more food for the road. We have worked on collecting reusable lunch gear and, as we find it, really cool non-plastic gear. The sandwiches have been a bit tricky on the non-plastic front (though a sandwich does fit nicely in a compartment of the To-Go Ware lunch system).

One fun item we have tried is this reusable Wrap-N-Mat. It's better than a sandwich bag because, of course you can wash it easily and reuse it. Furthermore, as you can see, it makes a nice plate. The red-and-white gingham print is extra fun because of the picnic feel it provides.

After each use, rinse the mat off with warm water if it is not too dirty. If has a lot of sandwich ooze, you can throw it in the washer with your regular laundry (though I'd give the ooze a quick rinse first). A machine wash is also good maintenance for the Wrap-N-Mat. You can find the Wrap-N-Mat at Reusable Bags.
