caramic plates/bowls for food and glass…glasses for drinks
That’s how I roll. And all of it can safely roll through the dishwasher.
I started using stainless steel (some type made for food/drink) like 6 years ago or something and it’s been pretty great for taste. the previous plastic bottle I was using would taste like shit and need cleaned constantly. the metal is fine for weeks if not months… not that I would drink from the same uncleaned bottle for months… cough
Just don’t use plastic with food. Everything else lasts longer, is more durable in terms of not self-destructing or being ruined by contact with food or the act of cooking it, and you won’t have as many microplastics in your life.
Yes, a significant source of microplastics in people’s diets is from containers. Tupperware, sandwich ziplocks, the packaging it comes in. Buy, cook, and store stuff in glass, wood, metal, or paper, and you can nearly halve your microplastic intake.
The advantage is that you can control the amount of microplastics and balance it with the other seasonings to make a better tasting dish. Kind of like how chefs always use unsalted butter and add the salt themselves.
Try the ones with bamboo lids, they’re usually replaceable (and are generally parametric to even sizes if for some terrifying reason you wanted to 3d print lids and had a food safe 3d printer)
The trick is to STOP PUTTING YOUR FOOD IN PLASTIC! Glass storage containers aren’t much more expensive than Tupperware (and when on sale are cheaper)
Glass and stainless steel for storage

Metal for drinks is great. Don’t have to worry about them shattering if I drop them or dog knocks them off something
what flavorless mayo shit is this? how would you get the microplastic seasoning into the food then, smart guy?

I like glass, but a lot of it comes with plastic lids that crack easily. Then I have to put it in a plastic bag while taking it to work.
