For at least 25 years, I used plastic containers to store my leftover food. While I used other items like ceramic and metal, if I ever needed extra containers plastic was always my go-to for the price point. They were always readily available at my local grocery store, so it was easy to toss a few different sizes into my cart before checkout if I ever needed any. However, a friend asked me a few years ago whether I had considered switching to glass, and I had to answer honestly: No, not yet. Then, of course, I began to delve into why glass food storage containers are better for your health and the environment.
