Have I ever discussed saving parmesan cheese containers??
The lids fit on Mason jars, so at the very least they are a wonderful save and usually very durable.
But I save the whole container, and for example, I am using one as a sugar shaker that I keep beside the coffee pot.
I love saving these items...
Typically I favor glass above any plastic containers, but with the parm cheese containers, they are so easy to clean out and there's no smell you have to soak out with vinegar or anything of the sort.
I also delight in keeping the containers that deli meats come in. I've probably covered that already... but it's a shame to throw any of those away.
I use them as plates for my nightly snack.
I never microwave those plastic containers, but you could... just don't reuse them and don't overcook whatever you're putting in them.
They don't last forever even when they are used properly.
Remember if you store anything like pasta sauce in them, that will shorten their lifespans.
