I thought it was a man-zier?

I agree. No plastics allowed in my house with the one exception of garbage bags. Glass and porcelain and old fashioned knives, forks and spoons, even for picnics. Storage in my refrigerator always glass, and parchment paper for sandwiches. I HATE plastic.

Planned obsolescence -— a direct result of greed and avarice.

My thought too. Research photos for potential lawsuits.

I’d like to get to that point. I do use plastic wrap, though I know I shouldn’t. And some plastic refrigerator containers. Where can you buy covered glass containers? The antique shops sell them, but I’m concerned about lead in old dishes. I bought a beautiful set of old dishes made in Japan, then had to throw them all away. I washed them in the dishwasher, and the glaze over the painted design wore off, and the paint that was exposed tested positive for lead.

NO. There were 4 studies. Only 25% of first time studies are replicated so listen.

Kramer wanted to call it the "Bro", but Frank Costanza decided on the "Manssiere".

You can find them in most up scale grocery stores. Publix has them and I’ve picked them up in discount houses like T J Max. They usually have plastic seal tight lids which you can use or not as you wish. All sorts of sizes fit all needs for the refrigerator.

Oh, yeah. I have seen the ones with the plastic lids. I think I have a couple. I thought you meant the ones with glass lids. :)

[Mollypitcher1]

Both. The plastic lids are tightly sealed and do not touch the food. Pyrex is the maker of the glass. Ccan’t beat that. I also use Mason jars quite often.
