2. Not that brand, but we bought some similar bags. They work fine.

I don't know if there's a "gotcha" hiding somewhere in the calculation of what's best for the environment either. But in addition to using fewer zip top bags we also use less saran wrap now.

They don't work for every application, and we only bought so many of them so we still use zip locks for stuff going into the freezer -- because it may be there a long while. But for stuff going into the fridge these are our go-to bags now. The ones we got seal very well which is nice for storing stronger scented things like an unused half of an onion or whatever. Washing is not so bad, drying was a hassle until we started using a little drying rack that we had for a different purpose, it holds them open well enough to get well dried.
