Phthalate Free
Phthalates are found in toys, electronics, personal care products, plastic wraps, containers, and more. These petroleum based chemicals help soften plastics, and bind fragrances to perfumes, deodorants, creams, and other personal care products. Phthalates are are not chemically bound, meaning they can easily get released into the air, water, or your body, just by using the products as intended. Phthalates have been found to disrupt the endocrine system, which can cause reproductive damage, hormonal imbalances, infertility, mood changes, metabolism changes, and more.

Fact: 30-40% of all the groceries you purchase get thrown in the trash, equivalent to around $1,600 wasted per year. Food Huggers saw this, and decided to put a lid on food waste with their unique silicone food huggers. Their Avocado Food Huggers are specially designed to combat browning avocados, in two stretchable sizes for differing produce sizes. Plus, the patented pit pocket design can be pushed in or out, depending on if your avocado half has a pit! And, like all Food Huggers products, theRead Morey're 100% BPA free, phthalate free, vegan, and made from FDA food grade silicone. When you've eaten every last bite, just toss the huggers in the dishwasher for years of use!

Works great, but I really only use the smaller size, so it would be great if the sizes could be purchased separately.

I like the different size options though the small is the one that I typically use, works better than beeswax wrap to keep them fresh.

I use these daily! Normally I only use the small one but have had a few avocados big enough for the large one. I’d love an in between size! I have two toddlers that eat avocado almost daily and I split half of one between them so I always have half to save. I was using plastic wrap. This saves the waste and also keeps the avocado fresher!

The large size is completely useless for the avocados I get, so I wish the sizes could be purchased separately. Also wish they had a smaller size as well since the “small” in this 2-pack is slightly too large and therefore unusable for the tiny organic variety that is common in Southern California.
When they do fit they work really well so I am still glad I purchased.

Hi Anna! We love these food huggers as a great, durable option for keeping Avos fresher for longer. Because they are made of sturdy silicone, they will last for years and years! A few of us have had ours for 5+ years and they’re still looking good as new 🙂

The smaller size works really well, haven’t found an avocado large enough to use the bigger size though. Could have used two smaller ones or an option to buy the sizes separately. Also, when we put them through the dishwasher they came out really spotted and with a chalky coating. It did come off with a hand wash. Don’t think we will be putting them in the dishwasher going forward. Not sure if it’s our soap, or something else, but just something to keep in mind.

I bought these for my mom and she absolutely loves them! She never eats an entire avocado so I’m glad that this came in two different sizes so that they’ll surely fit her different sized avocados. Hopefully it’ll help her save them and save money on buying them. lol She’s been wasting Ziploc bags but also, she’s wasting avocados too. I’m hoping that since these are brighter colors, that she’ll remember to use the older avocados first and not cut into new ones. Thanks so much!

We eat tonsss of avocados in our home and don’t always eat both halves so this is the perfect solution. We use all of the other huggers but were excited to see this one come up as the unique shape is necessary!

The covers don’t always fit the avocado but mostly it works pretty good.

Packaging would be nicer if it covered full product instead of having product stick out (bowl part) and collect dust before customer receives. Two sizes. I haven’t used them much but they seem good.

Love how convenient and easy these are to use, and clean. I am only giving 4 stars versus 5 stars for the fact that there really should be 3 sizes versus 2. These work well just every now and then I’ll get an avocado that would be best with a size in between these 2. Still so happy with these though!
