Question from R.M.
I’m wondering if anyone knows of any non-toxic or less-toxic (both in terms of health and environmental impact) freezer pack–something one would pack with food to keep it cold on a car trip.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Reusablebags.com has a product called “Cool Totes” (search for it on their site) which is an insulated lunch bag with a nontoxic freezer pack. I actually have one leftover from a television show I did on back-to-school products, and there is no odor that I can detect.
The outer shell appears to be nylon. The Thermo Tek™ insulation is made from recycled plastic soda bottles.
A “nontoxic” reusable freezer pack included, which sits in a separate interior pocket. It “stays cold 3X as long as regular ice with no watery mess”. I don’t see that they sell this pack separately, but you could ask.
