The Advantages of Microwave-Safe Plastic Lunch Boxes
About 335 million tons of plastic are produced globally each year, half of which is used once and only about 10 percent is recycled, most of which is food packaging.
There are various styles of plastic lunch boxes to choose from, from traditional lidless boxes with lids, to the popularity of simple sandwiches, to stylish bento boxes for those who prefer more variety. Some dishes come with cutlery, and most are dishwasher safe for easy cleaning.
They are all free of BPA, a chemical used to make certain plastics that can leach into food and may put children at increased risk of health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease and impaired brain development.
Microwave safe, sealed open, waterproof, can withstand high temperatures up to 250°C, ideal for steaming fish and vegetables. They're great for storing leftovers in the fridge or cupboard because you can see what's inside at a glance, and they're also freezer-safe.
