5 Seeing is believing

If you can’t see those tasty leftovers or the chopped pineapple in the fridge, the container will likely end up languishing in the back, lost and forgotten. By the time you peel open the lid, its contents will only be fit for the green bin. Invest in durable, see-through, dishwasher-safe reusable storage containers so the lovely fruit salad you made will call out every time you open the fridge. Tempered-glass containers and reusable silicone storage bags are great choices, and you can buy stretchy silicone lids that fit overtop glass bowls or jars you may already have on hand.
