We recently had the opportunity to try out the line of Goodbyn products. We love Goodbyn products. Goodbyn products are very easy for my youngest, who is 5, to open and close which means that her lunch bag is not coming home with an explosive mess inside. Before I tell you more about what I love about Goodbyn, here is a little bit about Goodbyn as quoted from their website…..
the back story
We are a small company in Naperville, Illinois who had a little idea to reinvent the way kids eat lunch—making lunchtime easier, more inspiring and fun for both kids and parents. From the beginning, we decided to be as transparent as possible about our decisions as a company: how we produce, ship and get product to market.
Conceived in Seattle and Chicago
As we concepted Goodbyn and researched kids’ eating habits, we wanted a team of people who meshed with our beliefs, but had the unique background of research-driven, modern product design. We thought we’d be searching for a while, but (almost immediately) we were able to form a team with the expertise and design aesthetic that enables Goodbyn to look as cool as it does while making lunchtime for kids smarter than ever.Made on Earth!
Goodbyns are designed in Chicago and are made on Earth…Goodbyn started out as an American brand, made in USA. During our four years of being in business we have become an international brand, sold in over 25 countries. Our goal has always been to solve the problem of trash created by one-time-use packaging and to offer our products at the most affordable price, to as many as possible. We believe we have succeeded on the first account but that our pricing has always excluded a lot more people than we would like. Our mission is still the same – where we make our products has changed. In order to survive as a business, expand our line and make our products more affordable, we made the decision to manufacture overseas. We work with well established factorys that maintain high-safety standards and are working towards sustainable practices. We import only forecasted amounts that will sell domestically – we ship on demand amounts directly to our distributors in other countries – thereby actually lessening the carbon footprint and costs that our exporting created.
Here are some of the items that we got to try out and test….
Available in four awesome designs.

What I LOVE about the Goodbyn Insulated Lunch Bag:
* I love the separate pocket for the ice pack.
* I love how long it keeps the contents cool. I find it keeps everything a lot cooler than the other lunch bags we have.
* I am in love with the fact that the liner pulls out for really easy cleaning.
* I love the clasp strap handle so you can do it up onto another bag.
What is also awesome about the Goodbyn system is that the Goodbyn Bynto fits so nicely into the Insulated Lunch Bag. We got to try out a wonderful red Goodbyn Bynto and it is really awesome. I love how the Bynto keeps each portion of the lunch separate.

The Goodbyn dishwasher safe stickers that are to decorate your Goodbyn containers is what makes my little one love her Goodbyn containers. My little will almost always pick her Goodbyn containers for her lunch over other ones because of the wonderful faces and stickers she has decorated them with to make them her own.
