I would even go so far as to say I would prefer a continuous roll with a tear strip like foil rolls so the labels could be as large as necessary. Perhaps they could have longitudinal lines.
I have some that are chalk paper, so you can just erase and reuse with absolutely no difficulty. It wouldn’t be helpful if it’s going to be bumped around and smudged a lot, but it’s pretty hard to smudge it unless you’re deliberately wiping to get it off.
I would be interested if you left one in the fridge or freezer for an extended amount of time, like a few weeks or longer, if they stay in and actually still come off as easy. Otherwise, these seem like a winner to me 😁👍
they usually do...a lot of restaurants use similar labels...and they spray right off...the only thing id be concerned about if you had bad drain pipes that are notorious for backing up...they might gum up the pipes a bit if you have a lot of labels getting washed down the drain daily...
These tend to last a while honestly, the only issue I’ve had is when we prep our cheese and if the bags have any condensation or ice on it, sometimes the defrosting and wetness from the bag does find its way to the stickers
James thank you so much I've been interested in these products for a while but always my biggest concern was perspiration and thanks to your video I can now see if that a problem
Very impressive, however, I find buying and using dry-erase markers from Dollar Tree ($1.25 for a set of three) works well. Just write on the container and wipe it off with a damp sponge. Now I haven't and wouldn't try microwaving a container before wiping the marker off so I don't know how it would compare.
These are great. I worked in food service for many years and I remember when these first came out in the commercial catalogs. That was at least a decade ago and I was very impressed at the time.
Those are great! And for once, the price difference here in Canada is not insane, they are $22.99 for 200. What I'd like to know is how long they would last for long term storage in the freezer. I have little trouble removing regular labels after a short time, but I have had problems with labels lifting off containers or vacuum sealed bags in the freezer after even a few weeks, much less a few months. Maybe you should put a few on some freezer items and include these in one of next year's yearly updates!
The only other test I would've included in this review would be to see if they still come off easily after a week and a month. As we all know the longer a sticker is on a surface the harder it is to come off. Otherwise, great video as always!
These are commonplace in foodservice. Useful for prep dates & expiration dates in addition to what the product is. They do take time to dissolve, no matter the temperature, but they do work.
I work in a cafe. Those are like the date stickers we use at work to label our chocolate sauce and stuff. The only downside is that any sort of moisture including condensation will cause the label to rub off.
As someone who has worked in a couple of restaurants that use dissolvable labels for prepping food, I wasn't surprised that this worked. However, I'm glad to see the cheap inkless pen get used in future episodes.
I am a little concerned about what they are actually made of. What am I washing down the drain into the local water supply? Does the box/company address this?
I used to use water soluble food labels when I worked at starbucks. They're really neat. If you use hot water they just fall off and dissolve into nothing.
Yep I've done that, and the old trick my grandmother taught me growing up using even cheaper paper masking tape. the only downside to the masking tape is if you leave it in the freezer too long it could get brittle/stiff, and lose its hold on some surfaces.
Ball also makes dissolvable for labels - easy to find at Walmart (especially during caning season), not too expensive and they really do just wash away. Plus - unless you get them wet they last for years. Even better - aside from a small grayscale flourish top and bottom they're blank.
I was thinking about the water too, but it seems to me you could just use a little bit of water and/or a wet paper towel to remove it, instead of letting the water just run longer. You can't do that with a "regular" gummy label, so it's still a winner, if you only have to wipe it a little.
First place I used dissolvable labels was in a school kitchen in 2000. Then I found them for home and I use them a lot. It is easier to label containers than using freezer tape, comes off cleanly, and stays on even when frozen.
I thought this was going to be something new an innovative, don't get me wrong these work amazing! It's just been around in the food industry forever, I used to order extra and take some home LOL
Wood pulp and Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (Cellulose gum in its Sodium Salt form) so no, nothing that shouldn't go down the drain. The food industry has been using these type of labels for decades.
Labels like these have been available to the home canning community for many years. I use them exclusively for things I’m canning for my own consumption, as they are so much easier to remove than traditional canning labels. That said, storing jars with labels like these for long periods of time (over a year) can see some degradation, especially if they’re kept somewhere with some humidity. Ink can start to bleed a bit, and the labels can get a little bit rough. They still do the job just fine (I can still read them, and then still rinse off cleanly and easily), they may not be quite as pretty after a long period of time in a more humid environment.
Impressed that/when a product does what it says! Also impressed at how much thought you put into your testing--with the different surfaces, pens, temperatures, etc., AND your consideration for wasting resources! 👍 [waits for someone to figure out how to use these to commit the perfect murder 🤣🤣🤣]
I'm curious how they would handle a fridge in a hot and humid climate. The place I lived before, towards late summer the air was so humid that you get condensation on everything in the fridge on some days. 2-3 days in such a fridge would be interesting to see. Fun review, was beyond my expectations!
They have a lot of them in food work. I deal with them every day. One of the biggest down side is if you mess up putting them on you have to reprint them.
We use labels like those at my job to mark products with prepped on an expiration dates for the make line. They're blank and use a thermal printer. Both the labels and the printer are made by Brother
We don't use these specific ones but at my kitchen job we do indeed use blank labels meant to dissolve in water and they work quite well. They leave no sticky residue on the containers we stick them on and they last until time to wash the container.
You are supposed to use food safe ink on these stickers. Some ink are not safe to consume. Same thing with pencils. They can contain chemicals that is not safe to consume.
JAMES!! You need to put some labels on containers/other objects and also on some containers/ziplock bags in the freezer and keep them on until you do your reviews for one year later. I'd love to know how these do over an extended period of time!
@@OkieOtakuNot necessarily if you’ve used a FoodSaver vacuum sealer! When we moved out of state years ago I has vacuumed some turkey from a Thanksgiving a couple years before - my niece took them and after thawing the items, they were perfect!!! On the other hand, if something is frozen for that long of time it would be tossed immediately! I have found items that I overlooked and haven’t been vacuum sealed and tossed them!
I have used the Ball (Jarden) canning jar version for years. They work great and I love them 🙂. They are oval, with no writing, only a rather pale design. I have had absolutely no problem with them for long term storage in the freezer or the cupboard. They peel off easily or wash off.
Cool idea. I can see it being useful for long term freezing, if they last in a freezer with the defrost cycles. Also seems like a cool idea for parties or something.
I’ve been using Ball Dissolvable labels for quite some time. I reuse containers whenever possible, so these have been a Godsend. I bought a package of 60 quite some time ago, and knowing me, they had to have been under $5.00. I really love them!!
Your beard is so thick, beautiful man (no homo). Why don't you grow a full beard? Do you have the same problem I have, thick goatee but almost no growth on the cheeks?
I was just wondering have you ever reviewed one of those lightbulb security cameras I was thinking about purchasing one, but I’m not sure of the quality or performance
I've been using dissolvable labels, this brand and Ball brand, for about a decade, for labelling home canned goods. They work well but they have some minor drawbacks. Still better overall than regular labels though. After being on a jar for an extended time like with food stored in the pantry, the adhesive needs a little help along with a blue scotch Brite to dissolve. If you just soak or throw in the dishwasher the paper will dissolve but some adhesive will still stick around. And if they're on anything that collects condensation in the fridge (glass does this the worst) they stay on but sorta swell and sag slightly and the pen or marker ink can, not exactly run, but bloom. The effect is much greater than with a normal paper label. Though it still stays readable enough given you don't write real tiny. They are easier to accidentally tear with your hands when damp with extended fridge condensation: think jams & jellies. But their use for me is to ID what they are at a glance after months in the pantry, without having to look at every single lid. When they're in the fridge being actively used up everyone tends to already know what they are at that point.
This is cool, but actually I think I would rather have a NONdissolvable easy wipe label. Just a big white label that you can wipe off. If I am labeling a container, I probably always like having the label available. Outside of like loaning food to someone, even then it would be ok to label! Obviously then they can't sell as many maybe.
Feels expensive and wasteful tbh. I bought these way cheaper (like 2 bucks for 24 pieces?) labels that are supposed to stay on there, but you can rinse and wipe them off to remove the ink of the pen that comes with it. You can basically re-use the labels over and over again. Although I must admit you can somewhat smudge them if you handle them often with wet or sweaty hands, it's really not too big of a deal to write something on them again after a while. Should be noted I mostly use them to put my spices and herbs in tiny little sealed pots and mark them with it.
I've been using the Bernadin dissolvable labels (meant for canning) for years. I use them in the fridge, pantry or freezer, and I haven't had one prematurely wear off. Nor have I had one not dissolve when washing the container.
How about material like these hut the size of printer paper? You can then design and print fancy labels if you make your own wine, preserves, treats, etc.
My question is is there's got to be some chemicals or substance that's going down the drain is it going to in the long run gum up your plumbing second is it eco friendly. Forgot to save this poor or that we have ruined. I just finished watching a video before this one about a place in Africa where they take all the flip-flops they can get from the beach everything and they scrub them and they clean them and then they glue them together and turn them into statues like they might make a 8-foot giraffe to put on display and it's a multicolored giraffe because of the different colored flip-flops but their recycling it and it was very interesting. So that's why I'm asking how Echo friendly is it. Can't wait for the next video.
Ok. I write directly on my mason jar lids with a sharpie. When I'm done, I run them through the dishwasher and the ink is gone. Same thing for my deli containers. No need for labels of any kind.
James, I live in the humid east, so I wonder how these labels perform on a container that is subject to condensation. You might try putting ice water into a pyrex measuring cup and placing it in a steamy bathroom too see if condensation affects the label. Put me down as not willing to spend the money if they don't work in my situation. Most of us don't live in a dry climate!
Restauranteur tip You can get these a lot cheaper in bulk for food retailers and resteraunts. The more expensive ones can be printed out from an app you can connect to with a phone or tablet. You can save pre labeled templates and create automatic values for when it was prepared and a set time to discard if you wanted. Otherwise eject a blank and use a sharpie for the same affect. Those ones you just put in the bottom of a sink with hot water for added water pressure and they disenegrate in seconds with a quick and optional swipe of the thumb. Not to mention larger, heat activated ink, and easier to read. If you wanted you could just order the square blanks on a large roll and use the roll and sharpie method instead of processing it through what looks like gloried receipt printer to save even more money. I even leave half the backing from the sticker on so the can just peel off for even less work and they stick just fine
We used something similar where I worked. The dishes usually soaked for a bit. I would pull them out and run a cloth over the label and it would vanish.
The best label for everywhere in the kitchen are simply a strip of blue painters tape. It stays put until you pull it off. It comes off easy with no residue. I mark with a sharpie.
Woah that's really neat , can you imagine how much you could screw with people that have never seen something like those you could fool someone into thinking that you're doing magic the person wouldn't know what to think or say.
Very interesting product but I am wandering what do they are made off because the washed down product can contaminate the water like the detergent little spheres. Just curious
they really just need to make them blank so you can marker whatever you want on them
I would even go so far as to say I would prefer a continuous roll with a tear strip like foil rolls so the labels could be as large as necessary. Perhaps they could have longitudinal lines.
I have been using dissolveable for years. the ones I have are blank and on a roll. I love them.
I have some that are chalk paper, so you can just erase and reuse with absolutely no difficulty. It wouldn’t be helpful if it’s going to be bumped around and smudged a lot, but it’s pretty hard to smudge it unless you’re deliberately wiping to get it off.

@@rebelangel8227 These labels dissolve in water. Nothing remains to clog up the drain or pipes.
They work great in foodservice just the condensation is viscous
Wow, those are really neat. For once something that does exactly what it claims to.
I love how they wash away without having to scrub them at all. This is how stickers SHOULD BE!
eating your colleague's lunch was never easier
Hehe... it made me think of Ross in Friends and his turkey sandwich with the moist maker.

The heck with the labels...where did you get the veggie steamer? Great review not sure I
would use them. I'm on the fence about them. 🤗🤗👍👍
thanks James - definitely getting these.
dang,was online in the right time lol
a good thing to accompany this would be vaccum sealed Tupperware
👍 From New Zealand, have u visited here? Be cool to see a review on vacation in New Zealand
We use those at work and they are fantastic
The best sticker product ever.
I honestly think it would be nicer to have erasable ones rather than dissolvable, especially if you’re going to use the Tupperware a few times
There are plenty of erasable label kits on Amazon.
Happy Valentine's James 💗 💕 💓 💖 have a great day tomorrow 🍾🥂 and great video as always 👍
Would like to see these on a sheet that can be used in a printer. Anyone know if that exists?
starting to think u really like chicken

Or 3 bucks for a roll of masking tape and have the same results while having a reusable label
@@jamesTBurke I have been using masking tape for decades. I always tab the end so it is easy to remove.
@@lauralee4395 that's my point. And masking tape leaves no residue as well
Thanks James for reviewing another product I didn't know that I wanted and now I need to order 😂😂

I’ve been using a dry erase marker directly on any dish/container. Easy and super cheap. (Love your reviews though!)
The dry erase stands up when in the freezer? I've never thought to try that but it's brilliant!
James has never worked in the food industry lol
FYI: There are rolls of 500 blank ones on Amazon for ~$12
These are commonplace in foodservice. Useful for prep dates & expiration dates in addition to what the product is. They do take time to dissolve, no matter the temperature, but they do work.
My only concern would be like a sticky jar of jam... can you whipe off the jar without affecting the label?
These are interesting. I’m assuming the label is made of sugar…but don’t know what they used for the adhesive. Molasses?
I had no idea those exist. Kinda magical when you see that for the first time. Might get some if they have blank ones.
I work in a cafe. Those are like the date stickers we use at work to label our chocolate sauce and stuff. The only downside is that any sort of moisture including condensation will cause the label to rub off.
G'day, I would like to see you do a review on "MagicEzy Glasses Scratch REPAIRezy" to see if it is what they actually claim it can do.
My mother-in-law washes and reuses ziplock bags.. very unsafe

This is amazing. Also good for the environment too, I hope.
Always appreciate how much thought you put into these reviews💕
Those could be very useful, there is a label smearer in my house. I am for ever finding smeared finger marks in the dry erase or chalk marker labels.

How did it work on zip lock bag?
They look awesome but first I need to train husband of 37 years to label things 🤦♀️

unless they get wet, literally nothing. They behave like normal paper sticker labels as long as they remain dry.

The best label for everywhere in the kitchen are simply a strip of blue painters tape. It stays put until you pull it off. It comes off easy with no residue. I mark with a sharpie.
Woah that's really neat , can you imagine how much you could screw with people that have never seen something like those you could fool someone into thinking that you're doing magic the person wouldn't know what to think or say.
Very interesting product but I am wandering what do they are made off because the washed down product can contaminate the water like the detergent little spheres. Just curious
