My thoughts: First of all, these are pretty (or for the men in your family, they are attractive and sturdy). I can envision so many uses for these three containers. Since they are not insulated, you can't expect hot or cold foods that you place in them to remain hot or cold unless your lunch "bag" is insulated. They can be used for hot or cold items, but the containers themselves are not insulated.
I can see the large container housing a lovely salad for lunch. It holds 40 oz. or 5 cups. The other two are great for your other lunch items to accompany your large salad.
Or you can use them in the refrigerator to store different quantities of food. The stainless steel is a return to basics that we need to do as consumers. It is environmentally sound. It can be used for so many things. You can premeasure items for a cooking spree and cover them until they are needed. You can whip eggs in one before adding it to a recipe.
So many uses. The lids, though plastic, are safe to use as they are an inert BPA free plastic that won't leach into one's food - even if the food is hot. Wonderful!
They store nicely since they nest and this them especially appealing. Lovely, too, that they are dishwasher safe. And many years after getting these nifty little containers and when you think the lids have expired (stuff does wear out, you know), these great little stainless steel bowls will keep on serving you well in your kitchen. This is a win win product.
Product information (from Amazon): (find it on Amazon - click here) Our lunch box set includes three stainless steel boxes with plastic lids that provide a liquid-tight seal. With three separate bento boxes, there’s no need to worry about your lunch accidentally mixing together while you’re driving, biking, or riding the bus to work or school. Store ingredients and leftovers in the fridge with your set of three stainless steel boxes or pack up salads, sandwiches, entrees, and snacks to take to work or school.
They are made from pure 304 (18/8) grade stainless steel and are completely rust resistant. Stainless steel is also durable. It does not break like glass and is lightweight. Our design is reusable and long lasting for an environmentally sound solution to lunch packing.
The large container holds 5 cups (40oz), the medium container holds 2 1/2 cups (20oz), and the small container holds 1 1/4 cups (10oz).
These lids are made of polypropylene - it is an inert BPA free plastic which has been tested and shown to not leach into food even under heat. The rubber ring in the lids is removable, providing the ability to completely clean the lids.
