I’m a fan of the green apple print. IT is simple. Great idea by the green moms.

My favorite print is the Blue Shark! I would LOVE these – I use a ziploc bag for my lunch every single day, and these would be both eco-friendly and eco-nomical!
I love the Blue Sharks print. (I also think the “White” design-your-own is awesome too!)
Thanks!
