10 Easy Pieces: Food Storage Containers

November 27, 2013

With Thanksgiving upon us, we’re already thinking about the cleanup, and the fact that everyone’s food storage containers will be seeing high traffic over the next few months. So we decided to host a virtual Tupperware party, minus the pushy hostess (fortunately) and hors d’oeuvres (unfortunately). Here goes: a roundup of our favorite storage containers, all of which are hardwearing, safe, and environmentally responsible.
