Lunches, Leftovers, and Less Waste: Why I Love MoonMoon
Two sustainable staples that bring calm, clarity, and charm to the chaos of the kitchen.
Items kindly gifted | Opinions completely my own
If you’re anything like me—constantly juggling the mum life, snack prep, and trying to be a bit kinder to the planet—then you’ll know the struggle of finding reusable products that actually work, last more than five minutes, and don’t drive you mad to clean.
I’d seen MoonMoon products mentioned a few times and always wanted to give them a try, so when MoonMoon sent me their Reusable Silicone Freezer Bags and Stainless Steel Lunch Box with Divider i was beyond excited!
And let me tell you, I’ve used them almost every day since they arrived. They are a game changer. Here’s my full, honest review after using both for a few weeks now.
The Freezer Bags That Became My New Favourite Habit
I’ll admit—I’ve tried reusable freezer bags before, and most ended up in that annoying kitchen drawer we all have. The one full of odd lids and stained containers you keep “just in case.”
But MoonMoon’s silicone bags are different. They’re soft but sturdy, with a clever flat base that stands upright while you fill them. That might sound like a small thing, but when you’re ladling stew into a bag one-handed while answering a maths question and unloading the dishwasher, it matters.
They seal firmly. They don’t leak. They don’t stain or warp. I’ve frozen leftover dhal in them. Stored pancake batter overnight. Taken snacks out on park days and filled them with sliced fruit after breakfast. And every time, I’ve been a little surprised at how much easier they made something.
Even the washing up is simple—they rinse beautifully, and when I’m too tired to care, they go in the dishwasher without complaint.
They’ve made me feel more organised, more thoughtful, and—dare I say it—a little more grown-up in the kitchen. And that’s not something cling film ever gave me.

The Lunch Box That Feels Like a Quiet Statement
If the freezer bags impressed me, the stainless steel lunch box quietly won my heart.
There’s something deeply satisfying about how it clicks shut. It’s light, but solid. Simple, but beautiful. With no plastic, no fuss, and just one perfectly designed divider, it’s become my go-to for both packed lunches and fridge leftovers.
I used to dread packing food for days out—our old tubs always smelled vaguely of cucumber and never fit quite right in the bag. But this? This feels like packing a little piece of order.
I’ve filled it with cheese sandwiches and cucumber spears for my daughter, roasted veg and hummus for myself.
There’s something oddly grounding about eating from something that’s built to last.

More Than a Product Swap—A Shift in Mindset
What surprised me most about these MoonMoon pieces isn’t just how useful they are. It’s how they made me feel.
In a season where so much feels disposable, fast, and chaotic, choosing reusables isn’t just about being eco-conscious. It’s about slowing down enough to care. It’s about honouring the work you do every day—feeding your family, prepping meals, tidying up—not with perfection, but with intention.
That’s the power of tools like these. They remind you that small steps matter. That you can live more lightly, even if your life is full. And that sometimes, the best changes start not with a big decision—but with something as simple as what you pack your lunch in.














Final Thoughts
These products were kindly gifted to me, but my love for them is entirely honest. I didn’t expect to write quite so many words about a freezer bag and a lunch box—but here we are.
They’ve earned their place in my kitchen. And, I think, they’d earn a place in yours too.
No overwhelm. No overthinking. Just two beautifully made tools that support a slower, simpler, better way of living.
Used daily. Appreciated deeply. Kept for good.
