I am so excited to share with you a totally new company to me! Abeego
A revolutionary way to wrap up your left overs, your half eaten fruits, and cover your food dishes.. without using plastic wrap or tin foil! Reusable, food storage flats made from help, cotton, beeswax, tree resin and jojoba oil. Natural, and handcrafted in Canada. I HATE throwing out plastic wrap after we unwrap a product we wanted to preserve in the fridge. It is not recyclable, and it is so harmful to our environment, and especially to any animals that may get into it.
At room temperature you can easily mold the Abeego around the food you want to preserve. When it is cold it holds it's form and becomes less malleable.
Beautiful photos Toni sent over of ways to use the Abeego flats!
Using Abeego Flats
Taking care of your Abeego will allow it to last for over a year! I bet you never reused plastic wrap for that long. Simply handwash in cold water with eco friendly dish soap. These are not suitable for the microwave or dishwasher. Another great thing is that they are fluid resistant, so when you wrap the top of the spaghetti sauce bowl, and someone tips it, it won't leak out all over like it would with other food wraps. The Abeego may take on some of the colors of foods like tomato products, but the efficiency will be the same.
Enter to win 4 sets of Abeego Flats! Use some for yourself and give
some to a friend. You will want to share this product for sure!
US and Canada!!

ReplyDeleteWash in cold water with eco friendly soap
ReplyDeleteI will hand wash in cold with an eco-friendly soap.
ReplyDeleteI will try this tip: use biodegradable, alcohol free soap for Abeego
ReplyDeleteI really love that it can be used short term in the freezer. I also like that it is easy to care for; just hand wash in the sink and let dry. How easy is that? mary987 (at) hotmail (dot) com
ReplyDeleteI learned it is the perfect cover for rising bread dough.

One care tip is to avoid prolonged contact with oily or greasy foods.

I will use it to store my cheese!
ReplyDeleteTheir mobile site does not have care tips. They really need a website that allows me to go to the desktop version from my iPad. I am not a fan of being forced to view the mobile site.
ReplyDeleteI love that I can compost the wrap when its useful life is over.
so easy - just wash in cool water! I so want these!
ReplyDeleteThese are cool, would save alot of money not using plastic wrap and that they are usable for many different uses from your review "Hand-wash Abeego in COLD eco-friendly dish soap In COLD water the beeswax coating will be stiff, providing a stable surface to clean. "Abeego washes like a plate, not a piece of fabric. It can handle a light scrub with a gentle dish cloth or sponge......"
ReplyDeletePlace over a dish rack" to air dry or towel dry Abeego for immediate use. Do not wring."
For the love of cheese :)

I would use for cold cuts and cheese.
ReplyDeleteIt's great when you're letting bread dough rise.
ReplyDeleteI like the "half cut," forming Abeego around the cut side of your avocado. I hate putting saran wrap directly on my avocados... i feel like I'm adding so many nasty chemicals!
ReplyDeleteWe would use the cheese tips! I always freshly shred our cheese but never use a full block so the remains usually end up in a plastic bag. Katy C. dragon _ at _ heart 04 @ hotmail . com
