Sustainable Mess Kit




I know how you feel. You’re a person who is on the go. I real go getter you might say. You don’t always have time to cook at home with all the stresses of modern industrial living. You feel that it is ridiculous to put a half eaten spring roll in a Styrofoam to-go container. You love your double-shot soy latte but as you toss that coffee cup away you can no longer live with the illusion that the garbage you create magically disappears into some other dimension. You know the reality of it don’t you? Well guilt will eat you up inside. The practical* solution is to just pack one of these bad boys into your message bag, purse, or back pack. Its easy, I promise you.

This sustainable mess kit contains:

  1. A fork and a spoon (just regular old silverware like ma and pa have).
  2. A Kleen Kanteen
  3. A Herkimer 8 oz. coffee mug
  4. A polyester breathable produce bag
  5. Rubbermaid glass Tupperware
  6. Multiple canvas bags for groceries

*The practicability of humping around these extra items is still being tested in the field. While carrying all of the items listed above may prove to cumbersome with a laptop, utilizing any of the products over a long period of time provides a great way to reduce waste, feel good about yourself, and spark conversation when people ask you why you’re carrying around silverware. You just ask right back, “What universe are you living in bud! I’m thinkin’ with my brain, and thinkin’ for the generations to come!”
