Just wondering if anyone has used Squeezems pouches for yoghurt? They look great but I am wondering how they go in lunches boxes, do they open easily and therefore leak or are they ok?

Any feedback appreciated, thanks original.gif

Yup, it's a regular in DD7's lunchbox.
They don't leak and are easy enough to open. When she was in kindy I would open them to break the seal and re-close.

And if frozen they are great to keep the rest cool.

I looked at buying these as well. Are they easy to clean?

Thanks for this, I've just ordered some!
Much cheaper than buying the yoghurt pouches.

I got the 80ml and while they fit a tub of yoghurt they can be difficult to fill .. we chopped the top of a small soft drink bottle and use this as a spout I wish I had gone the bigger ones now.. even though they wouldn't be full I think they'd be easy to fill

We have the 80mL ones. They're pretty good but are fiddly to deal with - the filling, the cleaning etc. I ordered them directly from the company and received them very quickly (along with some spare lids).

I use a squeeze bottle to fill them and do it all on Sunday night, then chuck them in the freezer. I don't find it a problem but it's annoying enough to give up on if you're not really committed.

I don't use them for yoghurt, they won't come home otherwise, however I do use mine for shampoo and conditioner to take to the gym. I got mine from biome.
