What are the benefits of glass food storage containers?
1. Oven-Safe (Generally). Glass food storage containers tend to be oven-safe. You can cook your dish, serve it and store it all in one container. Remember to remove the lid before you place the glass container in the oven.
2. More Stain-Resistant. If you plan on cooking food that tends to stain, you might want to consider getting glass food containers.
What are the benefits of plastic food storage containers?
1. More Durable. If you plan on transporting your dishes, we recommend getting plastic food storage containers that won’t shatter. They are also lighter to carry around.
2. More Affordable. If you tend to lose containers or lend them out, plastic containers are a bit easier on the budget to replace.
