BPA-free Food Storage Containers

I’d always used plastic containers for leftover food. I never thought about it much, but as those containers started to show their age I replaced them with glass.
Glass is an ideal food storage container. It doesn’t absorb odors or stain like plastic. It’s also not easily scratched. You won’t find it warping either!
Pyrex storage containers come with a BPA-free plastic lid that makes food storage more secure. It’s also completely dishwasher safe. I feel better about reheating in the microwave when using a glass container. I wish I had gotten rid of my plastic containers years ago.
What do you use for food storage?

I bought 4 of these. I have a dog that loves to munch on plastic. I called to see if I could get replacement tops and ythey told me They dont sell them .I ended up with some fairly expancive small bowls.This is not worth the price untill they offer replacement tops.
I have purchased several replacement tops from Pyrex for various sized bowls! You must call though – they are not available for purchase online. I had no problem… I just had to give the model number on the base of the bowl… (or have some way to identify what size I needed) and she sent them on their way. They were cheap too! Only about a $1/each. I’d try calling them again. Pyrex is pretty much all I use and it’s just a fantastic product.
Thanks for the tip ninamarie! It’s good to know replacements are available.
