    Should get glass or metal containers (ore sometimes even ceramic) if you can afford it or if you can sneak them into your bag/inner coat pocket.

    I bought some when I could afford it ~five years ago and they’re still like new.

    …You have to take out the sealing band and wash it separately from the lid. So many containers are ruined because people don’t take out the seals and the grow mouldy. ;-;

      Can you microwave the metal ones? Aren’t you gonna burn your hands off when you try to remove them from microwave? Can the ceramic one survive being put in a shared fridge where people might drop your lunchbag when they try to pull out yours? Will it survive in a pannier bag on a bike on a commute?

      Plastic wins in many of my scenarios
