U-Konserve Lunch Gear

by Create. Play. Travel. | Updated: October 15, 2014

Looking for simple ways to create less waste in your daily routine? Small swaps can make a big difference! U-Konserve offers bamboo utensils and eco-friendly snack bags to help families reduce household trash. These reusable mealtime accessories are both practical and cute, making sustainable choices easier than ever!

Make mealtime more fun and eco-friendly by eating with a double-sided bamboo spork, instead of plastic utensils. U-Konserve’s bamboo spork is sized for kids and comes with a bright orange mesh bag to keep it clean between uses. The neon bag can be tucked into a lunchbox or purse for on-the-go feeding. The spoon end is ideal to use with baby food, while the spoon-fork combination is great for an older child to use either.

Bamboo Spork

U-Konserve makes this unique two sided feeding utensil, with a spoon on one end and a fork on the other. The spoon has a functional curve that makes scooping easy and the fork has full-size tongs. My toddler thinks this bamboo spork is fun to use because she can eat from both sides of the utensil.

This spork is lightweight, durable, and hand-finished with a food-safe oil. I’d recommend hand washing this bamboo utensil and storing it in the drawstring mesh pouch. U-Konserve’s spork is a great plastic-free utensil for babies and toddlers.

U-Konserve Snack Bags

U-Konserve also makes reusable snack bags. This clear printed bag is made from sturdy BPA-free plastic that secures with a strip of Velcro. The top folds over to secure the contents of the bag. The snack bag is not airtight or water tight, so I’d recommend using it to hold dry snacks. It fits perfectly into a lunch box and it’s easy for a small child to open.

In addition to these items, U-Konserve mealtime products include a diverse variety of food storage containers. Overall, eco-friendly utensils, reusable snack bags, and other reusable lunch items can certainly help a family reduce household trash.

This brand of eco-friendly lunch accessories is a great way to “go green” at home!

πŸ’‘ Essential tips for traveling with our 4 kids! 🧳 πŸ’‘ Essential tips for traveling with our 4 kids!

🧳 Pack light with items that do more

We bring clothes that mix and match, quick-dry layers, fold-flat totes, and activities that encourage creativity. Think art supplies and travel board games. The less we carry, the more we can explore.

πŸ₯ͺ Eat often and try new flavors
We use snack stops and meals to experience local culture. Bakeries, fruit stands, and small cafΓ©s become our favorite spots. 

🏞️ Choose simple adventures over packed days
We go on kid-friendly hikes, stop at playgrounds, and tour cultural centers. We visit great houses, historic workhouses, and local museums.

πŸ“± Use screens sparingly
Ideally our kids only use screens on travel days, and with a time limit. Shows and multi-player games can help turn dull afternoons into family fun!

πŸ”¦ Encourage curiosity
We explore as much as we can with our four kids, shopping at markets, using public transportation, and visiting immersive attractions. We find many free activities, and budget for must-see destinations. 

➑️ Which of these travel tips would help your family the most?
