Tips, Tricks and Recycling

PREPARE

If you have a smaller dog for whom you need to divide your 500g chub into 2 or more portions, the best way to prepare your chub for serving is to:

Defrost on the side for 2 hours
Then, with a pair of scissors, cut off both metal clips (place the scissors behind the clips)
Then slice the plastic sleeve, long-ways, down the middle of the sausage
Take hold of the plastic at both ends and roll the chub out of the plastic and into a tupperware container
Place the tupperware in the fridge to continue defrosting
The chub can then easily be portioned

STORE

The frozen chubs can easily be stacked in your freezer - they take up 20% less space than traditional tubs/cartons

RECYCLING

The plastic sleeves are made from Podanfol, a form of recyclable polyamide (plastic)

Check-in with your local council to see if they can go in your household recycling, otherwise large chains such as Sainsbury’s, M&S, and Tescos will take these sleeves back for
you

**IMPORTANT**
Before any packaging that has been used for food can be composted down or recycled, it must be cleaned and disinfected. This is particularly important for raw food packaging
