How do Food Huggers Work?Updated 9 days ago

Food Huggers are one of those rare things that feel simple the first time you use them—and smarter every time after.

Just press your cut fruit or veggie—like an onion, lemon, or tomato—into the Hugger, and the soft, flexible silicone gently folds around the edges to create a snug, natural seal. It keeps air out, moisture in, and freshness right where it belongs.

There’s no need to hunt for the perfect size. Each Food Hugger flexes inward to fit whatever you have on hand—from half a grapefruit to part of a banana. The seal adjusts to the curves of real, everyday produce, not the picture-perfect kind.

Made from 100% FDA-standard food-safe silicone, our Huggers are completely BPA- and phthalate-free, long-lasting, and endlessly reusable. It’s a small, satisfying swap that keeps your food fresh—without a single piece of plastic wrap.

Behind that simple press-and-seal moment is thoughtful design:

  • A flexible fit that works across dozens of foods (and even opened cans or jars)

  • A natural seal that helps slow spoilage and reduce food waste

  • A reusable, easy-to-clean design that makes sustainability feel second nature

It’s care you can feel every time you open the fridge—less waste, more color, and food that stays fresher, longer.
