I have been doing this for years. My husband made me a bag dryer, a piece of wood, with 3 holes drilled in it, then 3 dowels put in the holes. Hang the bags over one or two of the dowels. Works very well.
I really think about the environment so much. I feel that plastic bag should not even be made. We should not use them. They destroy the environment and animal habitats. Not everyone puts things in the garbage they are called litterers. The people who do put them in garbage just fill the landfills with these non-biodegradable bags. I use to use them and now I wonder how many I have polluting the earth. How much I have paid these companies to pollute to make things easier for me.
Really how much harder is it to use a storage container over a plastic bag sure you have to wash it when you are done but lots of you are already washing your bags? It also helps to keep food costs down. It seems that you really don't store as much or make as much food because the containers take up more room in the fridge. So you are more likely to eat up your leftovers before making anymore. Eating organic has really made me step back and take a look at so many different things and this is just one of them.

Have you really checked the price of those plastic bags you are buying, like 20 cents for 1 quart bag. Most of us wash them and reuse them but then you have to dry them or hang them somewhere.
I reuse plastic food storage bags. I just wash them out when I do my dishes and hang them on the line to dry. The better grade bags really last the longest.
