    The idea of “meal prep” has become a cultural phenomenon that allows individuals to be healthier, stay fit, waste less food, and spend less money. Having a meal prep bag makes it easier and more convenient to tote pre-prepped meals along with you, whether it to be work or elsewhere. Most of these bags offer insulation to keep food fresh while in transit and some even have built-in pockets for water bottles for easy storage and portability. Available in different styles and across all price points, these bags have different features such as carrying options, extra pockets, and even included ice packs.
