No. The use of plastic trash bags for food storage or cooking is not recommended because they are not food-grade plastic and chemicals from them may be absorbed into the food.

Odor-blocking trash bags are lined with a layer of carbon to absorb odors, while scented trash bags incorporate scented particles into the plastic that the bag itself is made of.

However, some common chemicals that you might find in garbage bags include:

• High-density polyethylene (HDPE)
• Low-density polyethylene (LDPE)
• Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE)
• Plasticizers.
• Colorants.
• Fragrances.

Our trash bags provide 6-in-1 protection with flexible strength, secure-fit closure, odor control, and resist leaks, punctures, and tears.

Polyethylene, a commonly used plastic found in grocery bags and packaging, is formed by adding together molecules of ethylene in another type of polymerization called an addition reaction. Addition reactions happen between molecules that have double bonds or triple bonds. In this case, ethylene contains double bonds.

Activated carbon, silicone, and mylar are all materials that can be used to make odor-proof bags. The ability of a material to absorb and trap odors is the most important consideration when selecting a material.

Carbon is extremely porous and binds odor particles to its pores - making Smart Stash bags highly effective at absorbing smells. Think of an activated carbon filter as a vacuum that sucks up smell particles as air passes through.

A- To clean food storage containers, start by rinsing them with warm water to remove any food residue. Use a mild dish soap and a non-abrasive sponge or brush to scrub the containers gently. Rinse thoroughly and allow them to air dry or dry them with a clean cloth before reuse.
