Not only do these containers help your food to last longer but as a result it saves you money and saves waste of our precious resources.
These are some of the first Fridgesmart containers to come out.
They are the small size and measure 6" x 6" x 3 1/2" they hold about 4 1/2 cups. Fruits and vegetables have different airflow needs when stored in the fridge. You can regulate the airflow within the container and maintain peak freshness thanks to a unique venting system. A special built-in grid lifts food away from condensation. Textured seal reduces sliding when containers are stacked. Fruits and vegetables are divided into 3 groups - High Breathers (leave both vents open), Medium Breathers (leave one vent open, one closed), and Low Breathers (keep both vents closed) High (or Heavy!) Breathers include: Artichokes Broccoli Brussels Sprouts Endive Peas (including Snow Peas) Spinach Sweet Corn (dehusked) Medium Breathers include: Vegetables Beans (including Snap Beans and String Beans) Cabbage Cauliflower Fresh Herbs Fresh Shallots Green Onions Greens (Collard, Kale and Swiss Chard) Leeks Lettuce, all types Fruits Ripe Apples Citrus (including Grapefruit, Orange, Mandarin, Lemon, Tangerine and Lime) Ripe Pears Peppers (including Bell, Sweet, Hot and others) Low Breathers include: Vegetables Asparagus Beet Root Button Mushrooms Carrots Celery Cucumbers Okra Radishes Rutabaga Summer Squash Turnips Zucchini Fruits Ripe Berries All other ripe fruit not included in medium category All fresh cut fruit these have been used but I can tell you they haven't been used much. I bought these new when they came out and have been holding onto them for years and now I'm cleaning out cupboards and these are among the first victims of my cleaning spree. They still seem to seal well and are in good condition. These sell for $15 each on the tupperware website. this listing is for a set of two of these small fridgesmart containers.
