Why We’re Sticking With Glass: Our Commitment to You—and the Planet

In a world of convenience and plastic everything, we made a conscious choice at Colored Cows: to use glass jars for all of our products. Why? Because your health, our planet, and the quality of what we create matter far too much to compromise.

Glass is non-toxic. It doesn’t leach. It preserves flavor beautifully. And most importantly—it’s reusable, recyclable, and safe for you. We believe what you eat from is just as important as what you eat. So when we say we're committed to sustainability, we mean every step of the way—right down to the packaging.

🫙 The Glass Jar Journey (Yes, There Were Bumps)

Now, let’s be honest: working with glass isn’t always easy.

We’ve had some unexpected challenges—especially with shipping partners like UPS, who (let’s just say) haven’t always handled our packages with the care they deserve. Yes, a few jars didn’t make it in the early days. And yes, we heard from you. Loud and clear.

But here’s the thing: we made it right.

We reshipped. We upgraded our packaging. We added layers of protection. We learned, adapted, and committed even more deeply to our standard of care.

✅ The Good News?

We’ve now had zero broken jars for over a month—a milestone that means a lot to us, and even more to the customers receiving their orders safely, intact, and beautiful.

💚 Why We’re Doubling Down on Glass

We could have switched to plastic. It’s cheaper, lighter, and easier to ship. But we won’t.

Because your health matters.
Because sustainability isn’t a trend—it’s a responsibility.
Because flavor belongs in something pure and clean.
Because glass just feels better.

We’re proud to stand by our commitment, even when it’s hard. And we’re grateful to every single customer who’s stuck with us through the growing pains. You’re not just supporting a small business—you’re supporting a better way to do things.

🌍 What’s Next?

We’re continuing to explore eco-friendly shipping options, reuse programs, and other ways to reduce our footprint while delivering the products you love. And we’ll always keep it real with you—challenges, celebrations, and all.

Thank you for believing in us, and for helping us prove that better choices are worth the extra effort.
