Stainless steel container update: I recently purchased two 2-tier tiffin tins from Cost Plus World Market. They were on sale for 3.99 each, and I stored salad and roasted chicken in them one day, and a small sandwich and chips in them another. I really like their portability! However, they are not for hot foods or liquids. That's where a good thermal bottle or jar comes in. Apartment Therapy The Kitchn | Good Product: Glass Refrigerator Containers |

As someone who likes things to be functional as well as aesthetically pleasing, I have used the Container Store glass containers for several years now. They can be used in the oven as well, but I hardly use them for that purpose. If you want something with a snug fit in the refrigerator, you might try Ball Mason jars. I have several of the half pint size (available at Walmart), and I store raisins and raw nuts in them, in the refrigerator. Also at Walmart and Target are the glass cracker jars with aluminum lids. I store flour, cornmeal, and organic brown rice in the refrigerator for longer shelf life. And if Lorina lemonade is available in your area, the empty glass bottles make beautiful water bottles in your fridge. I store filtered water with slivers of lemon or lime. If you're looking for something to replace plastic for packing a lunch, why not consider Stanley thermal cups for hot or cold soups, and to Go Ware's stainless steel containers? I have not tried the To Go Ware stainless steel yet, but I am ordering a set this weekend on the reusablebags.com website.
