Food storage

Food storage centered on glass and stainless steel containers with non-plastic lid options.

Heat, fat, and acid can pull chemicals out of plastic, and most leftovers involve at least one of the three.  Glass and stainless steel containers are among the lowest-leaching materials available for repeated food storage.

Common questions

What does "BPA-free" tell me about a plastic container?

It tells you that BPA is not used, but it does not identify the full resin, every additive, or how the container will respond to heat and wear.  Glass and stainless steel make the main food-contact surface easier to understand.

Why review the lid as well as the container?

Lids contact food, oils, and condensation during filling, tipping, and storage.  We therefore identify the lid and seal materials instead of judging a set only by the container body.

Can glass containers go in the freezer?

Only when the manufacturer says they are freezer-safe.  Leave room for liquids to expand, follow the lid instructions, and avoid rapid temperature changes that can stress glass.
