Friends of Glass loves good taste – and nothing tastes better than it does in glass!
Glass packaging preserves its contents not only in terms of chemicals and general health, but also in terms of taste. And what better way to learn more about these awesome properties of glass packaging, than to learn about it hands on with someone who knows this for sure?
The Friends of Glass European community have organised just that – an opportunity for some lucky European bloggers to attend a fun workshop – a Glassware Party – to learn more about the benefits of glass packaging for food and taste. Spending the day with chefs and nutritionists, these bloggers will be able to learn more about why glass packaging is the best choice, all while trying out some cool recipes in glass!
The Glassware Parties kicked off in London, UK on the 5th of September, and will continue through Spain, Germany, Italy and France in the coming weeks. And from what we heard from the UK event – everyone had a blast!
But everyone can be a part of this super cool project – if you have an awesome Recipe in Glass, share it with us on our Recipes in Glass Facebook App – and you’ll be in the running to win a super fun glassy gift basket full of delicious treats!
Get inspired for your own recipes from the below video – and you can find the recipes here!
Healthy packaging, healthy families: What makes glass the healthy choice?
Did you know: every week, the average person ingests up to one credit card worth of plastic from food, water, or the air? You are what you eat – and that includes how it’s packaged. That’s why when it comes to our favourite food and drink, we need to look beyond the label.
Why does coke taste better in glass?
Soft drinks come in different tastes, shapes, and sizes. From coke to club soda, ginger beer or fruit sodas – there is a flavour for everyone. The most famous of all is probably Coca-Cola, the dark brown carbonated soft drink, campaigns, but which tastes good all year round.
But what is the best way to enjoy your favourite soda? Do soft drinks taste better when they come in glass compared to other packaging materials? Why did Coca-Cola decide to design their unique bottles with glass? And what is the best way to store coke at home to keep you drink fizzy and fresh for when you decide to open it? Read on to find the answers.
Choose Health, Choose Glass
We’re all trying to live better and more sustainably, from how we consume and dispose of products to how we look after our own health. Yet packaging remains crucial to preserve products through delivery and storage, and to ensure longer shelf stability of products once purchased. By offering a material that’s not just endlessly recyclable but remains food safe throughout the closed-loop recycling process, glass packaging continues to provide strong sustainable benefits for the health of both people and planet. Glass is never a waste.
