Before you buy

Glass or plastic containers?

Glass for reheating and long fridge life; lightweight plastic for big batch weeks and commuting.

How many containers do I need?

Five lunches plus two dinner backups covers most weeks without a midweek wash marathon.

What keeps salads fresh?

Dressing in a separate leakproof cup and greens packed dry — add the crunch right before eating.
