Holiday baking is over, and I got to try out my fantastic package from If You Care! I was lucky enough to be sent unbleached parchment baking paper, recycled aluminum foil, sponge clothes, baking cups and sandwich bags + an If You Care t-shirt.
The aluminum foil was most used over the holidays: we wrapped our turkey in it to bake and covered numerous dishes with it. This aluminum foil uses 95% less energy to produce and the aluminum foil and cardboard packaging can both be recycled…and it works surprisingly well. It does seem a little thinner than some more traditional aluminum foil but holds up very well and did its job perfectly for our Christmas baking! It made me feel good to be using something that is so good for the environment!

The paper snack and sandwich bags were perfect to send goodies home with family. It has a natural barrier that prevents fats and greases from penetrating the surfaces. This is so much better than the traditional sandwich bag because it is not plastic and does not stick around in a landfill forever. I am thrilled to have plenty left over to send my son sandwiches to school.

I did not know that some parchment papers contain Quilon which contains heavy metals that could potentially be harmful to us. After learning this, I am stoked to use the If You Care Parchment paper. It is unbleached and uses natural silicone instead of Quilon, which sounds much safer. It works very well too, and leaves nothing to be desired out of this great product. Because it is unbleached that means that no chlorine is dumped into our rivers and streams.

The sponge clothes are wonderful! These can be used just like paper towels except they can be reused and washed and used over and over again. Just one cloth can be used to replace up to 15 rolls of paper towels. They are very durable and absorbent. Not only is this good for the environment, it saves YOU money!!

Win It! One lucky winner will receive a gift pack of If You Care products including unbleached parchment baking paper, baking cups and sandwich bags + an If You Care t-shirt (available in sizes M, L and XL). Just head on over to the If You Care site and tell me one fact you learned from them!
