Store your food upright when using the glass storage containers. Even if the containers have a lid with a great seal, the food can still move freely within the container if there is a gap between the lid and the food. If you’re in the market for a quality set of food storage containers, you’ll want to go with glass. Glass dishes, like the Pyrex Simply Store Glass Food Storage, 6-Piece, are ideal because they never rust, and they are able to resist stains from dark sauces and odors from foods like onions and garlic. If you do a lot of food prep, you’ll want a glass food storage set that is also freezer safe. The FineDine Superior BPA-Free Glass Food Storage, 24-Piece is freezer safe and designed to prevent freezer burn and discoloration. This is perfect for safely keeping large batches of homemade soups, cooked veggies and just about any type of casserole at the ready. Keep in mind that most lids must be removed from the glass food storage containers before you heat the food up in a microwave or traditional oven. Glass food storage containers don’t have to be used for food. There are plenty of other items that you can store in the containers to keep your home neat and organized. For example, you may wish to keep sewing supplies, like extra buttons, thimbles or spools of thread in the containers. If your kids have small toy collections, such as little army men or LEGO sets, the containers will keep the pieces together. Just a few other things you can use these glass jars to hold include hair bows, coins, nail art and jewelry.
