Testing Bee’s Wrap … 1,2,3…

In reality, I am not a tester. However, I cannot help myself when I see a product at a store and am curious about it. You may remember the compostable towels? I am still using them rather than so many paper towels. This week I am trying out Bee’s Wrap.

Bee’s Wrap goals are to reduce food waste and single-use plastic. Each wrap feels waxy. No doubt from the beeswax, plant oil and tree resin in the organic cotton. They are sold in various sized packages. I bought the smaller one for small bowls and sandwiches.

They advertise use of the wraps for fruits, vegetables, cheeses and bread. I wrapped a bowl of mushroom risotto with the Bee’s Wrap. I warmed the wrap with my hands and the still warm risotto added to the shaping of the wrap around the bowl.

I also used another wrap around my bagel with peanut butter. Obviously my wrap is not as good-looking as theirs in the photo, but it did the trick to hold my lunch.

Wow, I did not get that same look with my bagel!?!

Once finished with each wrap, they recommend rinsing it in cool water with mild soap, then air dry. It makes sense to avoid direct heat and hot water with these wraps! Another good recommendation, do not to use them with raw meat.

So I can plan with regular use and proper care for the Bee’s Wrap to hold up for at least a year. When they lose their grip, each can be composted or used as a fire starter. Interesting! Well, I’ll see how this product holds up! Have you seen this product? Have you tried this product? Let me know; I am curious! Thanks!
