plastic containers – cspierdowis' Product Review Blog https://cspierdowis.com Thu, 15 Dec 2016 03:19:26 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.9.2 83694181 Portion control – Fit Simple- 7 Piece Portion Control Containers. https://cspierdowis.com/portion-control-fit-simple-7-piece-portion-control-containers/ https://cspierdowis.com/portion-control-fit-simple-7-piece-portion-control-containers/#respond Fri, 01 Apr 2016 22:49:40 +0000 https://cspierdowis.com/?p=3350 This fun set of containers is a set of 7 from Fit Simple. Besides food storage, and traveling with food, their purpose is for portion control. A lot of diets have portion sizing. That can be hard to do, so people like to use containers like these to help manage their lunches for work, on the go, and even at home. This set has locking lids, but they can be tricky to do. When locked properly, these are also leak proof, which is highly handy. The lids literally push down, and lock into place. The trick is, getting all four tabs to lock in. I can always get three, but the 4th is a little harder. Hopefully they will get easier with use. You just need to push down hard on each corner, and you will hear and see that they are popped in. When they aren’t, you can see one corner sit up higher than the others. There is no not knowing with this set. That I like, especially when storing liquid items. Opening them is a breeze. You literally just push in the grey tabs, and the lid comes right off. The sizes of these containers are: “Vegetables- 10oz. , Fruit- 10oz. , Protein- 6oz. , Carbs- 4.25oz. , Health Fats- 2oz. , Nuts, Seeds and Oils- 1oz.” The names of the foods are printed right on the lids.  I like how they broke the sizes down with food ideas. I find it very helpful. These containers are BPA free, DEHP-free, and dishwasher safe. You will get a little flyer with this set that gives you a recipe too. If you are on a diet that requires strict portions, these will be very helpful. Calorie counting will still be up to you though.

The Culinary Shops’ PrepStor 3 Compartment Food Containers with Lids. https://cspierdowis.com/the-culinary-shops-prepstor-3-compartment-food-containers-with-lids/ https://cspierdowis.com/the-culinary-shops-prepstor-3-compartment-food-containers-with-lids/#respond Thu, 10 Mar 2016 06:44:54 +0000 https://cspierdowis.com/?p=2874

I think we all need leftover containers. Even if you do not work out of your home. I love being organized when I can, and these containers really help in regards to food and meals. They are BPA free, as well as microwave, freezer, and dishwasher safe. For thin plastic containers, they can do a lot. They can handle temps up to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. There are 3 divided compartments in each container. With these containers, you get 2 – 8oz compartments, and 1 – 160z compartment. So, if you are on a special diet, you can use these to help you stay on tract. The lid snaps on very securely and keep these leak free. You really need to work your way around the lid, making sure it is fully snapped shut. Otherwise, they will probably leak on you. When you are not using them, they stack into each other so well, and take up minimal space. They are lightweight, and won’t add a lot of weight to your bag when you head out for work or a trip. These feel like throw away containers because they are so lightweight, but they can be used over and over, which I love.
