 | In New York, once I leave my apartment in the morning, I'm gone until late in the evening. I have struggled trying to find the perfect lunch and snacks container that is both practical and stylish enough to carry everywhere. Then...enter To-Go Ware! Now I have my lunch container, my carrier bag, and utensil set on me at all times. My co-workers, people on the subway, friends, and family have all asked me where they can get their own set. I take pride in letting them know that To-Go Ware is not only durable, chic, and pragmatic, but it is also sustainable. They have all joined the To-Go Ware movement!

 | To-Go Ware's Stainless Steel Food Carrier is truly a prayer answered for our little café. For ten years we have searched to find To Go packaging we (and our customers) could feel good about. As this great company reminds us, recycling is great, but REUSE IS THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION and for our customers, the Food Carrier is absolutely perfect. It's generous size allows our portions to fit nicely, and having 2 separate bowls is terrific when we serve chili in the bottom and a hot slice of cornbread in the top. Or a white cheddar and avocado sandwich in the bottom and savory lentil salad in the top. I myself have 3 so that I always have one at the café, at home or in the car. Gleaning inspiration from the Dubbawalla meal delivery people in Mumbai, India, I even strapped one to my bike the other day!). Dishwasher safe, light as a feather, durable and oh so attractive, these carriers are perfect to take to your favorite restaurant the next time you get take out, or for your leftovers if you dine in!
At our café, Main Squeeze, customer response has been better than we could have ever imagined because our customers are conscious about waste, and they don't mind dropping off their shiny pail (soon to be stamped with their name!) and waiting for it to be filled with hot or cold organic goodness! We all feel so GREAT about the packaging we are saving by using our Food Carriers. Finally...a REALLY GOOD SOLUTION to wasteful To Go packaging. Hail Hail the Pail! Our Holy Grail!

The first time I saw someone use to-go-ware I thought, "what a brilliant idea", as I grabbed some plastic-ware to eat my lunch. My friend proceeded to select his chopsticks and began eating with gusto. I, on the other hand, could not enjoy my lunch. The plastic was such a drag! Compared to the beautifully carved wood that looked so appetizing in itself, not to mention, the depression I was feeling about contributing more plastic to our landfills. I was hell bent on getting me some to-go-ware!
It didn't take me long before I got an entire set of to-go-ware of my own, including tiffin and carrying case! Since then, I feel very proud of every piece of plastic I've been spared from using and throwing away. My food definitely tastes better when I eat out of my to-go-ware! I proudly display it on airplanes and throughout my travels, knowing someone else will have the same revelation.
Where-ever I go, food travels, so I am so grateful for my To-go-Ware. Everything fits together so neat and compact, I don't have to carry around a plastic thermos bag anymore that was certainly not adding anything to my sense of style. Thank you, Stephanie for creating a hip solution to our plastic problem!"
