January 5 • Food Storage

This is my beloved stainless steel tiffin, also from To-Go Ware. I’ve had this as long as I’ve had the utensils so about ten years and it still looks brand new, not a drop of rust. It’s a two tiered piece, but only the top can fly solo, the lid does not fit on the slightly larger bottom section. I usually have this (at least the top tier) with me at all times. I will definitely throw this in my purple bag if I am going out to eat in case there are leftovers to bring home. I spend a lot of time hiking, biking, and kayaking when it’s not winter and this little baby holds quite a bit of food. What’s with the rubber band, you ask? Well if I’m not holding it by the handle, the handle clinks around and it was driving me bonkers on hikes and bike rides. Easy solution. Of course, there’s no need to run out and buy this particular piece or brand. I know plenty of people that have found ones in second hand shops. ECOlunchboxes is another brand I see a lot of people talk about, but I’ve no direct experience. Of course, any old Tupperware will do while establishing this new habit. It’s not plastic that is the main issue, but single use plastic that has gotten out of hand. Any step away from disposables is a good step. I’ll share some more about this piece in my stories.
