Healthy eating just got more eco-friendly in Queenstown.
Local Marcia McWhirter, pictured with her four-year-old daughter Kate, is selling zero-waste wraps for sandwiches and snacks in a bid to cut down waste.
She’s imported the Indian-made products – made from an “eco-friendly fabric” – from Australian company 4MyEarth and has spent the past six weeks rolling out the concept locally.
McWhirter says the wraps are a substitute for environmentally unfriendly plastic bags and wraps and suit adults as well as children.
“Compared to the cost of [plastic wrap], it pays for itself very quickly,” she says.
McWhirter will sell her wraps and pockets – priced between $10.50 and $15.50 – at a sale of designer gear at the Arrowtown Hall this weekend. (article online- see the below link)

I hate plastic wrap!
It’s fiddly and annoying and difficult for your kids to open. Not to mention that it’s not great for the environment. 4MyEarth has calculated that the average child would use about 105m of plastic wrap a year! To help us to our bit when it comes to reducing waste 4MyEarth have created reusable wraps that are an environmentally friendly way to wrap your sandwiches and snacks.
4MyEarth have sandwich wraps, sandwich pockets as well as snack pockets and snack wraps. They also have lunch bags and lunch sacks to meet the needs of the whole family. We reviewed a medium sized sandwich wrap and one of the 100% cotton lunch bags. The medium wrap easily fits a normal sized sandwich (ie whole bread size – no need to stack!) and you simply fold in the sides and then the bottom and seal the top with the Velcro. This is great for little fingers as it is so simple to open (no need to mess around with fiddly plastic wrap). The wrap has a label to write your name on, and when opened up becomes a clean placemat to eat your food off.
The sandwich wrap is lightweight yet extremely strong so is able to be used again and again. It is able to be wiped clean or washed by hand or in the machine. The material used is polyester and is non-toxic and safe. The wraps come in a range of colours (pink, blue or olive) and they have a kid’s range of materials too. We tested the wrap on a trip to the zoo recently. I made tomato sandwiches and wrapped one with the wrap and the other in plastic wrap. I rarely make tomato sandwiches to take out and about as I hate it when they go soggy, so I thought this would be a good comparison. The 4MyEarth sandwich wrap kept the sandwich fresh and more importantly, dry - barely soggy at all! The sandwich in the plastic wrap was quite soggy and I ended up throwing it away. I was hugely impressed with the eco-wrap. The wraps are also great for wrapping fruit so that it doesn’t get battered and bruised in lunchboxes and bags.
But my favourite use of the eco-wrap is for my cheese block! I hate it when you end up cutting off chunks of cheese that has gone hard and/or mouldy from sitting in the fridge (especially with the price of cheese these days – who can afford to cut off bits!!). Using the eco-wrap to wrap the cheese block and store in the fridge – my cheese has never been happier! We also reviewed the gorgeous 100% cotton lunch bags. These are so much nicer and lighter than a bulky lunchbox. We received a gorgeous pink daisy bag and my 3 yr old daughter fell in love with it – and in fact it became her handbag for the first few days. It now carries snacks as well as her lunch (plus the odd toy that sneaks in!). It has a polyester lining that pulls out so is easy to clean. It even has a small inside pocket for a small ice brick with Velcro closure so that you can keep the food chilled if you need to. With a zip to close and a strong handle, the bag has many uses beyond a lunch bag. The bag is also machine washable and dries quickly. I found the 4MyEarth products really fabulous.
They are functional and affordable but also stylish and fun. They are easy for kids to use and will easy pay for themselves in no time. I really recommend giving the wraps a try – you’ll be amazed at how much your food loves them, and the environment will too. And we all need to do our bit for Earth. As Marcia from 4MyEarth says on her website – there is no Planet B!
