About this item
- ELIMINATE SINGLE-USE PLASTICS - Plastic bags from the produce section of the market can accumulate really quickly and they ultimately get thrown away which is harmful to the environment. Flip & Tumble's produce bags reduce or eliminate your use of disposable plastic produce bags. Our bags are reusable and machine-washable so you can use them daily and keep them for years to come.
- DESIGNED FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE - Each reusable mesh produce bag measures 12x14 inches and is translucent so that contents are visible. It is ultra lightweight yet strong and durable to hold your fruits and vegetables. Each bag weighs in at a mere 0.4 ounces. The bags also have fun color tags if you want to color match to specific fruits, vegetables, or anything you like.
- BUILT TO LAST - Flip & Tumble's produce bags are made from 100% polyester. This material is much lighter, stronger, more durable, and more washable than other natural fibers. The bag has double-sewn seams and is made from tough polyester that is woven to be tear-proof.
- GREAT VALUE FOR THE MONEY - The produce bags come in a set of 5 which is definitely a great value for the money. You can also use the bag for different purposes. It doubles as a nut milk bag, toy organizer, travel bag, or laundry bag. Aside from that, it’s tested to be free from BPA, mercury, and lead. It’s a safe way to go plastic-free and ditch the disposables.
- GREAT GIFT IDEA - Everyone needs to reduce plastic in our environment. Give a set of Flip & Tumble produce bags to your family, friends, loved ones, and yourself today. It adds a little fun to an otherwise boring or tedious grocery shopping trip. You also get to help in spreading environmental awareness.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
We made the switch to reusable fabric bags years ago. The produce bags switch was a little slower. I think that's a natural progression...at first it feels a little "odd" being one the only people in a grocery store stuffing things at the veggie bins in to my own cloth sacks.
HOW MANY TIMES have the checkers marveled, gawked, stared, muttered or looked worried as my cloth produce bags would come down the conveyor belt.... "Did the vegetables come like that?" is the most common question.
"No, I put them in there." They recover pretty quickly and proceed with weighing and so on. At this point I put on my hippy hat of pride and say "It's silly to stuff them in to a plastic bag here just to take that bag home and throw it out."
You'd think this would be obvious to the world already eh?
Anyways I had a smaller set of similar type bags that we used for a long time...but the truth is they were too small. We out grew them. I am pleased to say our fresh fruit/herb/veggie consumption has increased to the point that I need a produce bag that can handle ALL THE POBLANO PEPPERS (and by all at least 6 or I get antsy nom nom)
I could sew my own...there's some degree of guilt I feel that I didn't...but there's also the rationale that if I don't have time or the materials at hand and these are pretty affordable, especially considering their grand size, then why not just get them and start using them.
It's like any positive life step, you just need to start and what ever little step between you and starting that you can remove, the better.
(This is how I justify half my purchases hahahaha)
Anyways these are super awesome bags.
My first most favorite part about them is they are HUGE....for a produce bag. For example I can easily put 14 average sized apples in one bag and still have room for a few more. I can put bundles of cilantro with their wild long stems in the bag and completely cover them. With my older bags I used to use they were so small that it was more like I put a hat on the cilantro bundles....just over the leaves, 8 inch stems hanging out the end...it worked but wasn't ideal.
These appear very strong as well. Time will be the true test and I'll update their long term use in the future. For the moment they feel strong. Lightweight enough I am not concerned about any extra weight added to my produce bill but nice and strong I stuffed 14 apples in without a worry.
I will confirm what another reviewer mentioned, the material while see-through-ish enough to see what is in there...has a tight enough weave that it obscures the barcode and the produce number that the checker usually looks for. I don't think this is a big deal because even in plastic bags the checker has to search through the cilantro stems (for example) to the twist tie with the code. Most of the time the checkers seem to have the codes memorized anyways.
I do my part to help by making the check out as quick and painless as possible for them. If I put 2 bundles of cilantro in one bag as the bag reaches their hands I quickly tell them "2 cilantro bunches in there" and they punch it in. That way they don't have to play "un-wrap the veggies and see what's what"
I also like the idea of using these for future travels as luggage organizers..I might try that out as they are very nice bags and I can see them being extremely useful for that.
The whole flip and tumble wash produce in the bag thing doesn't work for me..I mean it might work in general but I have a system down already for washing. I have a big colander and everything that comes home gets their turn in there to be washed. Pr tip: let your peppers and apples drip dry in the dish drainer, it works!
I don't store veggies in the bags, I saw some people complaining about stuff wilting etc...kind of silly...you can't expect these super airy ,esh bags to keep things magically preserved.
Annnyways I love these. I may have to get more.
I am adding a few photos that demonstrate how they are marvelous for apples. 14 in the bag I believe.
Also a closeup that shows how the barcode is obscured, again this is NOT a big deal. But if it stresses you..there ya go. haha

The size is perfect to hold 3 lbs of potatoes or a nice head of lettuce (celery and leeks are too long). The are sufficiently see-through that you can tell what is present at the check-out stand or in the refrigerator. They are light enough that you are not paying extra at checkout. I store most of my produce in them -- they vent, but slower than open bags so they are actually a very good compromise for moisture for everything except herbs. We have a seasonal issue with fruit flies here and we also use them on the table to store fruit at room temperature and they block fruit flies!
I launder mine regularly by tossing them in the kitchen towels and using a medium heat wash and dry cycle -- they also air dry quickly. Mine get heavy use and last about a year -- with lighter use they could last for 3 years -- but they are so great you will want to use them all the time! A big thanks to F&T for their product design and quality.

Order came as 5 bags (as planned), one-size (there was no size option to choose from when I ordered). Each bag is pretty big, I didn’t count but am sure I can fit at least 10 tomatoes in the bag. Can only be used for firm items (no liquids and I wouldn’t try grains). Material is nice to touch, sturdy and behaves well in the washer/dryer. Each bag has a long drawstring. So far, it looks like the bags will serve me for a long time.
The only drawback (although, not a significant one) is that you cannot see through the bag so need to open it at the cash register.
I bought it on sale for $6.49 CAD and am satisfied with the price/quality.
Ya compré un segundo paquete porque 5 no son suficientes!
