Has anyone ordered these
bags from Dragon Tea House? Does one have to wash them before use? I was thinking of doing without using detergent. Paranoid that using soap would contaminate the bag or something. Essentially it would be a rinse. If anyone has insights, would greatly appreciate it

They smell strongly of silkscreen paint and need to be washed a time or two for sure...

I have some of those, not bought from DTH. They didn't have a strong smell, but my guess is that has to do with how new they are.

I took an old cotton bed sheet and have been sewing up little folded-over pockets for my beengs--easy as can be.
