This year, our team covered a bunch of different plastic-free food storage solutions. We were on a mission to reduce the potentially harmful microplastics that get near our food. Turns out, readers were looking to do the very same thing.
Three of the sets we recommended throughout the year really stood out — and by that we mean readers like you purchased more than 10,300 of them! So if you’re just hearing the hype and want to pick up a plastic-free food storage container set for yourself, then look no further.
1. Bentgo Signature Leak-Proof Glass Food Storage Set
The Kitchn’s readers couldn’t get enough of this glass food storage container set our Senior Lifestyle Editor Quinn Fish reviewed earlier this year; they bought nearly 6,500 of them. We totally get why: It comes with five food storage containers (each with an accompanying lid), and is made of strong borosilicate glass, so it’s good to go in the dishwasher, oven, microwave, and freezer. Oh, and as Quinn mentioned in her review, the lids have a “silicone seal that’s totally leak-proof — even when I toss them in my bag to take on the train to work.”
