I was using plastic containers for a long time but i realized that the food is way better, it looks more fresh when you keep it in glass containers so i no longer use plastic.

I use plastic. Glass breaks too easily as I drop things all the time.

Unfortunately, yes because it is easy to use, affordable, and disposable

I still use plastic, yes. I know it's not the best option, but sometimes I'm in a rush and have to adapt to what I have.

I use plastic containers. I feel if you get the right type which can endure staying in the freezer there's no problem in using them!

We use plastic because it is the cheaper option. I need a lot of them, as we are a leftover heavy family. I have two toddlers. Both of whom are picky eaters. If there were more people proven to be getting sick from their tupperware, then I would switch in a heartbeat. Or if they made the glass ones cheaper and more durable. Again I have two toddlers. And a parrot. Send help.

I try very hard only to use glass, but it's tough sometimes. Glass containers are expensive, and harder to store in a small space. I think what's important is not to throw away plastic just because you can, but rather to re-use it until it wears out. You wouldn't throw glass away if it isn't broken, right? So I try to do the same with plastic.

I use plastic containers for storing cereals and flour. They have to be airtight though.
