Hi Robyn,
I am puzzled by this statement. I am a counsellor and have been a
'sales coordinator' with NMAA and I have never heard of these bags.
We sell commercial EBM storage bags, but I didn't think these had
zip-lock tops.

When I first started to read your message and it started with Nursing
Mothers, I thought you were going to say that ice-cube trays are a
common suggestion in Australia, as indeed they are.

I wouldn't have though this was any more of a problem than with other
plastic containers. Is there something I am missing here?
