Wow. I honestly didn’t think much about microwaving stuff like tupperware before, but I think this convinced me to switch to glassware.
I started replacing my food storage containers with glass a few years ago. It's not only safer, but also nicer looking and easier to clean.
I didn't want my old plastic to go in the waste stream, so I use it for overflow dry goods, hardware storage, and household cleaning tasks.
Is there glassware with lids that closes well enough to transport it?
Ikea has plenty of options, with either plastic lids or bamboo and silicone (neither of which are microwave safe)
