You are hearing and seeing a lot about Forever Chemicals, or PFAS, in the news these days. Due to reading and learning more about these, we have made it a goal to eliminate as much plastic from our lives as possible. We are starting with replacing our plastic food storage items with glass. But doing it all at one time can be expensive! So we are doing it in steps.
The first thing we did was buy some gallon size glass containers to hold brown sugar, oatmeal and pastas. They look rather nice on some open shelves in the kitchen. I want to get different sizes for other baking items such as flour and sugar. As well as more to hold different pastas.
The latest thing we are replacing are glass containers for food left overs. We were using the plastic containers daily, and some are now replaced. All the plastic food containers are out of our cupboards, and we are using only the glass ones we just purchased. We can’t wait to order our next set of the glass containers and get different sizes!
These are easy changes that you don’t need to do all at once. If you can afford to do that great! But like us, you can also do a bit at a time.
