The convenience chain Rutter's Farm Stores is on a mission to make fresh snacks more convenient for consumers to enjoy on the run with its portable grab-and-go bags. Unlike other carryout containers, which are made from plastic or cardboard, these handy pouches help to seal in heat while still keeping the product crisp.
The new grab-and-go pouches from Rutter's are portable bags that are designed to hold hot fresh food items. The bags are microwaveable, resealable and have a handle for maximum portability. The bags also feature ventilation holes that allow steam to escape and prevent moisture from making the food inside go soggy. This unique design is ideal for starch-heavy foods such as French fries and other perishable snacks such as onion rings, chicken tenders and beef shot ribs.
With a growing number of consumers eating on the go, these handy takeout containers make fresh snacks a more portable option.
