I have to admit. I love using Hefty storage bags for my leftovers. I come from a family that had always used storage bags to store leftover food in our refrigerator or freezer. They allow my fridge and freezer to save on space, and also keeps my food fresh. I am a huge fan.
Using Hefty storage bags for Thanksgiving is an even better idea because there is usually a ton of food made for that special day, and if you have friends or family over, you have made a ton of food, which usually means, a lot leftover. Hefty storage bags are really essential for saving space in your fridge and freezer and keeping your leftovers fresh for those delicious turkey sandwiches or turkey dinner for the next few days.
I love the zip bag because it is so easy to close. I get so frustrated trying to see if those other bags are actually closed or not. There have been too many situations where food has leaked on my fridge shelves that is such a pain to clean!
