Coffee Break: Food Storage Containers

If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to prepare meals or bring more of your own lunch, I wanted to give these small food storage containers by Sistema a shout out. The Sistema I’ve found is almost ALWAYS the right answer if you’re looking for something small – I especially like it (at least for rectangular ones), the lids fit a number of different sized containers and they REALLY lock. (I think these are the ones with the changing caps. the smaller ones and these are the bigger ones.)

Bringing liquids can always be a little dangerous – no one wants to open their lunch and see your salsa or salad dressing explode on absolutely everything. So when I asked for some small containers with swivel-lock tops, I was delighted to see that Sistema had some.

In real life these are much smaller than they appear in the pictures on the packaging, which is what I wanted – it would be a huge struggle to get a substantial amount of grapes or orange slices in there.

These are about $6 Amazon and Walmart; Note that you can usually find this brand at HomeGoods or similar stores.
