When it comes to smart eating, preparation is key. If you wait until you’re super hungry, there’s a pretty good chance you’re going to eat whatever you can grab, and often that’s not a healthy pick.

That’s where meal prepping comes in. Thinking about and planning what you want to eat before you’re hungry translates into a fridge full of healthy choices. Prep those meals and snacks in advance, then stack them in the refrigerator or freezer, and you’re set up to make good choices anytime you’re hungry.

What reviewers say

Many shoppers find these glass storage containers more durable than traditional plastic containers. Customers rave about the lock-on lids and the different sizes within this set.

“We love these,” writes one satisfied shopper. “They are good quality glass containers with plastic tops that seal perfectly … Great variety of sizes and shapes. I’m super happy with this purchase.”

Another customer comments, “They are heavy, thick glass, which makes them feel beefy and not prone to breaking easily. I’ve put different varying densities of liquids in them, from very light broth soups to heavy stews. I have flipped them around to check the seals, and I’ve never had the lids leak.”

“These are well made and the lids fit tightly,” says another shopper. “Definitely worth the money, and would make a nice gift.”

Some shoppers note that this set isn’t 100% perfect: the lids aren’t dishwasher- or microwave-safe: “Unfortunately, the lids of these glass containers are made of plastic, rendering them unsuitable for microwave use,” one shopper writes. “…It would have been more convenient if the lids were also microwave-safe.
