Etee Beeswax Foodbag

Wash them by hand using cool water and a mild, eco-friendly dish soap. Avoid hot water, as it will melt the beeswax coating, and let them air dry completely before storing.

They are ideal for produce, bread, cheese, and dry goods like nuts or crackers. Because the material is breathable, they are particularly effective at keeping vegetables and fruits crisp for longer.

No, it is not recommended to use beeswax bags for raw meat or fish. Because they cannot be washed in high-heat water or sanitized in a dishwasher, they aren't suitable for storing items that carry a risk of bacteria.

The warmth of your hands is the key. Simply fold the top of the bag over and press firmly with your hands for a few seconds; the heat from your palms softens the wax, creating a secure, moldable seal.

Since these bags are made from organic cotton and beeswax, they are fully biodegradable. Once they stop holding a seal—typically after about a year of regular use—you can simply cut them up and add them to your home compost bin.

You might notice a faint, pleasant scent of beeswax, but the wax itself is food-safe and should not transfer or leave a sticky residue on your food when used properly.
