Happy Earth Day, happy campers!!!

 

On this special day to celebrate mother Nature, we're so excited to officially unveil our:

 

NEW EARTH-FRIENDLY PACKAGING!

 

🌎💚🌎💚

 

Starting in about 5 weeks, Happy Campers gluten free breads and buns will be packaged in the special bags pictured above. 

 

What's so special about them? We're so glad you asked! The short story is printed on each bag:

🌎💚🌎💚
 
The long story is that this new eco-friendly bread packaging has been in the works for many years. Plastic alternatives are still a very new and complex area. There are so many facets to consider. 
 
Here are the highlights of our new earth-friendly bread bag and why we believe it's the best option available today:
 
💚 The eco-friendly technology in this bag is based on the revolutionary discoveries in recent years of microorganism naturally able to digest plastic and turn it into organic material. 
 
💚 There are now over 40 different known species of microbes naturally occurring in landfills known to literally eat plastic.
 
💚 The reason why they don't is because traditional plastic is extremely hydrophobic so they cannot attach to it.
 
💚 The revolutionary material of our new bags allows these microbes to attach and start munching away. 
 
💚 Additionally, the material is at least 64% bio-based and made from upcycled sugar cane fiber, left over after pressing sugar cane during sugar production.
 
💚 Besides being tossed in the trash, our eco-friendly bread bags can also be recycled with other plastic bags under existing PE code #4.
 
💚 Unlike oxo-degrable products, these bags don't leave behind microplastic particles and don't release any environmentally unfriendly elements. 
 
💚 The bags are FDA food contact compliant, they look and feel very similar to regular plastic bags and present no food allergens, chemicals or additives. 
 
 

 

Note about compostable bags:
While we love composting, the current reality is that a vast majority of people do not compost and nearly all waste still ends up in landfills. With our new bag's end-of-life landfill solution, we believe it is the most environmentally friendly choice available today.

We're so excited to soon pack your yummy loaves in bags that help address the world's plastic crisis! We're proud of this important step and we are committed to refining and improving as new options become available. Please let us know if you have any questions. 

 

Thank you so much for joining us on the journey to gluten free wellness and happiness. 

🌎🌎🌎 

Let's make sure we include the wellness of our planet Earth as well!
