Milkdot is lead by founder and creative director, Janet Cho who is also a mother of one. As a parent with an extensive background in design, Janet was on a quest to create safe, functional and reusable products that mirror a clean and modern design. Moreover, she wanted to ensure that she was producing a product that would provide parents the assurance that what they were purchasing was absolutely safe.

Taken directly from the Milkdot website Janet explains, “Like many parents, I had vaguely heard of PVC but never really knew what it was. Disturbingly, PVC (polyvinyl chloride) also known as the “poison plastic” is still used in many products. And in lunch bags, specifically, it can be found in the lining (which can have direct contact with food) and it is often used as a coating on polyester or nylon fabrics for durability. PVC is extremely harmful to our health and the environment, releasing poisonous chemicals linked to cancer and birth defects. Every Milkdot product goes through complete testing for lead and is lead-safe, PVC-free and BPA-free.” I have to say as a Theta Mom, this gives me the peace of mind that when I use a Milkdot product, I know it is one of the safest on the market. I reviewed the Stoh Lunch Tote in pink:

It is such a modern and stylish lunch bag that is also fully functional. There are so many times I am in need of a lunch tote with some kind of lining inside to keep juice, milk and other drinks and food cold. This tote is perfect for me when I take the kids out for a full day or even if it’s just for a few hours. All necessary food and drinks are kept cool and organized in mesh pockets inside the tote and extra snacks fit perfectly in the little compartment at the back of the bag. I think my favorite design element of this tote is the magnetic closure at the top which keeps the handles together. The Stoh Tote by Milkdot is so chic and would also be perfect for a new mom that needs to keep formula cool, a busy working mom that wants fashion and functionality when carrying a lunch to work, or the busy stay-at-home mom that packs this tote for a day with the kids. The tote also comes in blue and would be perfect for children as well. You can get the full details of this tote here.
