Insulated Lunch Bags Keep your food healthy

Why keep food cold? Harmful bacteria multiply rapidly in the “danger zone” -- the temperatures between 40 and 140 °F. So, perishable food transported without an ice source won’t stay safe long. The USDA recommends that food should not be left out at room temperature more than 2 hours (1 hour if the temperature is above 90 °F).

Keep Cold Foods Cold & Safe with Insulated Lunch Bags. The best way to keep food cold is with an insulated lunch bag. When packing lunches, include either freezer gel packs  or cold food items such as fruit, or small frozen juice packs. Nestle perishable meat, poultry or egg sandwiches between these cold items. Sandwiches can also be made ahead of time and kept refrigerated or frozen before placing in the lunch box.

Freezer gel packs will hold cold foods until lunch time, but generally will not work for all-day storage. Any perishable leftovers after lunch should be discarded and not brought home.
 

Why Insulated Lunch Bags by Cool ToteĀ® Really work

They really make life easy because they are lightweight and attractive.  They are easy to store since they collapse and fit in a drawer. The insulation is the same hi-tech insulation that is used for ski jackets and sleeping bags, so ounce for ounce, it works wonders. Our Lunch Sack takes up much less room in a backpack or tote than a regular lunch box because it conforms to the size of your lunch. 

One of the big secrets of our soft cooler is the lack of air between the insulation and your items.  In a lunch box if you put a sandwich and drink inside there is so much extra space that the insulation is not as effective.

Our freezer packs are our other secret.  Of course they eliminate the problem of soggy sandwiches, and watery mess. They are also soft so as they do melt, the inside core that is still frozen will stay closer to the items you want to keep cold and actually work longer than hard freezer packs.  Our freezer packs also freeze at a slightly lower temperature than water so they keep things colder and last longer.
