We’ve slashed our use of clingfilm in the kitchen by relying instead on various sizes of reusable plastic covers. Sometimes, however, we need a breathable cover for a foodstuff that could otherwise become damp or sticky. A clean tea towel would suffice, I suppose, but who wouldn’t prefer to use a set of these pretty, plastic-free bowl covers?

Great for outdoors to keep insects off salads in summer. Perfect for covering food in the fridge all year round. Can go in the microwave when reheating your leftovers.
- Single eco food bowl covers – ‘waste not / want not’ – 8 sizes: £6 – £20 each (For bowls 7.5cm – 38cm)
