Large Food Grade Bags for Proofing
I am looking for a large food grade plastic bag to use while proofing dough, but can not seem to locate a good source. Typically I use them when I have 2-3 loaves proofing in baskets, I like to put all 3 in the bag and tie it up while they proof. Any idea where I can find these?

I put a warm wet towel in the bottom, place the tins or basket of bread dough in and place the lid over. Works great as I can see the loaves proofing and can carry it out of the way to another room, if I wish. I used to use a large bag on the counter but found it could be awkward to move if I needed the counter while it was proofing.
Hi-I get these at Walmart on the Ziplock aisle. The Grocery stores mark them down after Thansgiving

well too :)
trash bags work well for me. I figure if they are safe for garbage they are safe for my bread - especially since the bags never .......eeeerrr...... hardly ever touch the dough ;-)
Turkey sized oven roasting bags have been doing the job for the last three years [same bags!]. They're made of clear mylar [nylon film] are food grade and can be reused for a very long time.
On occasion I've used Costco poly meat bags on a one-shot basis.

This is a source of large bags, unfortunately they only come in rolls of 200 , at $25.00
