I like the clear containers better as they can be reused many times, are more durable, tend to stay closed, and you can see what is in them once they go in the fridge. I have yet to find a recycling outlet in my area that will take them. Of course, don't use them to reheat in.

I re use containers from grocery stores, like salsa, deli salad containers, cottage cheese and other clean able containers. I use them for take home left overs for guests who come over for dinner.

This is a good idea but please know that unless they are #2, #4, or #5 plastic they are not safe to reuse for food or beverages so please check their number first.

I do not like these clam containers. I think they are hard to carry, they come opened and spill. I fold a piece of heavy duty foil and put it in my purse. I tried asking the resturants for foil instead of the containers but most say they don't have any. Unless the food is juicy, the foil works great.
My sister-in-law did something for Christmas that we all thought was smart. She saved the containers in which she had purchased take-out food all year. It was easy to just grab and fill them from the left-overs. We all had some good food for the lazy day afterwards when no one felt like cooking.
There was no expense of new containers. No one gave their favorite food containers away with the worry of never seeing them again. These were all the same black bottom, see through lid type, so they stacked easily in open fashion. Great idea.
