You probably have a friend who’s a health nut.  She eats nothing but whole grains, alfalfa sprouts and organic vegetables.  She likes her food mostly raw.  Every month she goes on a juice fast, drinking nothing but pureed apples and carrots.  Well, lucky for her, health food packaging has become way better over recent years.

Whereas it used to be only coffee and dried cranberries that were sold in stand up bags, now it’s everything from granola to fruit juice to laundry detergent.  Eco-friendly companies are especially keyed onto the idea of using containers that make less waste, cost less to produce, and keep ingredients super fresh.  They know their consumers like the new design, which is attractive and easy to use as well as environmentally conscious.

For health food lovers, both wet and dry products are available in the new style.  A spouted pouch makes pouring very convenient, and keeps the liquid inside unpolluted and nutritious.  For busy folks who care about the earth and want to eat the best ingredients they can, there’s nothing better than a thin, plastic, recyclable container.  It weighs less for people who bike around the city, and takes up less space in the garbage dump!
