BPA Free -Microwavable Food Storage Containers

Tired of dried out leftovers? Cabinets full of mismatched, lidless containers? BPA Free Microwaveable food containers may very well be what you are looking for.

One of the primary issues in the kitchen is that of food storage after it has been cooked. When we pull out those leftovers, maybe a piece of meat to cut up for a sandwich, we find it to be so dry that we throw it away. If you are tired of dried out leftovers, these stackable food containers may very well be what you are looking for. I love these containers for items such as cheese and lunchmeat.

They stay fresh longer and do not dry out or spoil as quickly as when I used plastic food storage bags. Our cabinets are filled with food storage containers, many melting when put in the microwave for a quick heat up. We save margarine, cottage cheese containers that crack? We end up with mismatched lids and containers.

Avoid Food Contamination

Most individuals think that food poisoning only applies to when they eat out at a restaurant or other food serving establishment. Most of the illnesses, minor as well as serious, are due to food contamination. One of the culprits is that of improper food storage. It is recommended that food is stored in air tight containers to limit or prevent the growth of bacteria that can cause a serious, if not fatal illness from food poisoning. Although plastic bags, for food storage, are considered to be safe, with the day of recycled products, they are not as thick as they use to be, and in my opinion, do not keep food as fresh as they once did. Using plastic bags, especially those like Ziploc, Glad and others, end up in the trash and then landfills. They certainly are not environmentally friendly. Another issue with plastic food storage bags is that there are those who try to save money by washing them and then reusing them, which leaves a high probability of food contamination by using them over again. You can protect your food from contamination by using air tight food containers that can be cleaned properly.

Melamine is a product that looks like ceramic yet it when you tap it, you realize that it is some sort of hard plastic similar to the resins used to make countertops. You can find mixing bowl sets which work great as stackable food storage containers too, along with sets for food storage.

I received these as gift and absolutely love them. Put the lid on which I burped, out of habit, and I was pleasantly surprised as to how well they did in keeping my food fresh. My dishes such as soups, creamed dishes stayed fresh without drying out. The bowls are a beautiful red color with clear lids

Rubbermaid Stackable Food Storage Containers

New Versions Of An Old Favorite

I love Rubbermaid. They have been around for years, and their products are long lasting. When I moved a year ago, I left houseful of things behind, including kitchenwares of all sorts. I had so much old, that it was time to replace it with new. Of course, my Rubbermaid containers were left behind to. However, I did find one when I was unpacking, and it continues to be used. Most of us can always use another storage container of some sorts in our kitchens. Rather than pay exorbitant prices in retail stores, mine was usually the grocery store, you can buy individual pieces or sets. The sets of stackable food storage containers are great for those just starting out, so they make a great housewarming or even bridal shower gift too.  

The clear bottoms stop you from having to open each container or putting one of those sticky labels on it that never seem to want These are heavy, microwave and dishwasher safe. Can be used in the freezer too.  

If you don't like the plastic type, you can't go wrong with glass. Use these in the freezer too. Microwaveable and dishwasher safe. The air lock some large sizes, but primarily small ones. If you scroll down the product page, a reviewer provides a list the sizes.  Lids provide a tight seal. 

If you want stain resistant, this set is great for that too. If you don't want to guess, there is no guessing here as to what is in the container. A totally different feel than the older Rubbermaid. Great for a small family or single person who may not have large portions of left-overs
