Is glass Tupperware better than plastic Tupperware?
Although glass Tupperware is heavier and easier to break, overall it is the better choice. By using glass Tupperware, you can be certain that your food will not be contaminated by harmful chemicals. Glass is natural, sustainable, and recyclable. It is also more sanitary as it can withstand heat easier than plastic, meaning that it is easier to clean. Another recent innovation in the world of food storage includes beeswax wraps. These serve as an alternative to plastic cling film and can keep food fresh for days, making it the ideal thing to wrap your glass Tupperware in if you lose the lid!
Do glass containers keep food fresher for longer?
Glass is a non-porous material, which means that nothing, including bacteria, can get through it. This helps to keep food fresher for longer and, as food particles will not get trapped within the material, your food will taste better! It will not taste like plastic, or worse, taste like the food that was stored in the container previously! You won't get that horrible staining that occurs after one use with plastic containers either.
