The simple act of switching to reusable storage bags can reduce the amount of plastic in our landfills and our oceans. The new food storage bags from Lékué are made of a durable, platinum silicone so they hold up for many uses and are easy to clean. These bags are freezer safe, refrigerator safe, dishwasher safe and microwave safe. These 100 percent airtight bags are designed to replace traditional plastic wraps and will better protect foods from freezer burn. The bags, with the easy to use closure clamp, can be placed in the microwave to defrost foods. Bags can be stored in vertical or horizontal posi- tions and feature a place to write, to label the food and the date. The bags are avail- able in three sizes: 16-ounce, 34-ounce and 50-ounce. The bags retail for $7 to $10. Smart and practical prod- ucts follow the Lékué DNA. The compa- ny continually focuses on developing product solutions that are the smartest choice for not only people but the planet too. Reusable food storage bags are just one of the newest product inventions by Lékué designed to support the zero-waste movement. The company is also introducing a reusable, collapsible mug to go, reusable flexible silicone lids, a reusable and waterproof lunchbag to go and reusable silicone sandwich and baguette cases.

Alpha Guardian: Investing in People and Products By Malissa Phillips, Marketing Event Program Manager, Alpha Guardian Across the United States, varying issues contribute to the rising need for secure storage solutions. These are factors that are part of an ever-charging domestic landscape people face almost daily. For example, rising costs of living in many cities have led to a rise in co-living, which creates affordable housing with communal-style spaces. Natural disasters are increasing at an alarming and devas- tating rate. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), there were 14 weather and cli- mate disasters in the U.S. that exceeded $1 billion in losses. The number of guns continue to exceed the number of people in our country; according to the Small Arms Survey (2017), approximately 27 million U.S. households own at least one firearm but do not follow responsible storage practices.

Other Sponges Don't Stand Up Introducing the tenacious new shape of clean – the DishFish, created by Jim Kordenbrock. The new DishFish line of powerful multi-purpose sponges and non-scratch scrubbers work hard to eliminate every- thing from kitchen grime to bathroom soap scum to car and motorcycle grease and everything in between. Plus, they stay fresh and odor-free longer while lasting up to 10 times longer than the leading competitor. Like the name implies, the sponge is shaped like a fish. This patented, innova- tive shape allows for effective cleaning in hard to reach spots and is designed to stand on its 'tail' to dry quicker and stay fresh longer, by reducing bacteria odors, mold and mildew. Unlike traditional sponges, DishFish products are made with PowerCell Technology™ which attacks the grease and grime but is gentle enough to not scratch sensitive surfaces. Its ForeverFresh Foam™ achieves absolute "wipe dry" results, making it perfect for everyday cleaning tasks. There's a "Fish" for every tough chal- lenge: DishFish Scrubber: The revolution- ary new dish-cleaning tool for powerful, scratch-free scrubbing – even on your most sensitive surfaces. DishFish Dual: A dual scrubber and sponge that's perfect for everyday house- hold cleaning tasks. DishFish Lil Scrubber: A revolution- ary new scouring-type pad for the tough- est jobs. GoFish Scrub Sponge: A larger dual sponge and scrubber for challenging "on- the-go jobs" or hobbies including, out- door grilling, cars and motorcycles, boats, RVs, hunting or fishing use. GoFish Power Scrubber: Same great McKenzie Meats Collaboration with Switchback Ale McKenzie of Burlington, Vermont, has launched its first collaboration with long- time Vermont neighbor Switchback Brewing Company. This new beer bratwurst, named the Switchbrat, marks the first in what McKenzie hopes will be a series of Vermont collaborations to come. These delicious beer brats are made with premium cuts of pork blended with traditional spices. McKenzie substitutes Switchback Ale for the water in the recipe, making these brats subtly sweet and juicy.
