Ziploc Evolve Quart Food Storage Bags Review

While at the grocery store last weekend and on the hunt for small Ziploc-style bags, I discovered a box of Ziploc Evolve Quart Food Storage Bags.  They were supposed to be more Earth-friendly which is a cause that I will always support, so I bought them.

These Ziploc Evolve Bags are supposed to be environmentally-friendly because they use 25% less plastic and are made with wind energy as opposed to gas or oil fuel.  The carton is also made with 100% recycled cardboard. 

Ziploc Evolve Quart Storage Bags look like your typical quart-sized storage bag, but they are noticeably thinner.  The actual "ziploc" closure is still strong, so I feel comfortable storing things like onion halves, fresh herbs, or some grape tomatoes from the garden in them and in the refrigerator.  I wouldn't, however, store expensive meats or seafood in them if I planned to freeze them because these bags simply seem too thin to protect them.

I was very cranky the morning that I bought these Evolve Quart Storage Bags and basically only did so because they were like only 20 cents more expensive than the regular Ziploc bags.  As far as I'm concerned, these Evolve bags are reasonably-priced and great for storing things in the refrigerator.  I wouldn't subject them to freezing temperatures with expensive cuts of meat or so because I don't think they really are designed to safely store them long-term.  Recommended.
