What type of containers do you store your pasta/grains/beans in? I don't know if I should get glass jars with screw on lids or plastic with the screw on lids.
Thanks for your input :)

Hi Mary,
I really like the website reuseit.com or the container store. They have lots of options if you want to buy containers. I prefer the glass, airtight containers, but they are heavy and would break if dropped. I store dry goods like nuts and seeds in leftover glass jars (like from pasta sauce), but have bought bigger ones for grains and beans. I make a big batch of beans and store cooked beans in glass canning jars in the freezer. Good luck!
Some BPA-free plastic ones are probably best since they won't break. But Katherine's right, you should reuse your glass ones too. I actually wanted to treat myself and bought a plastic set from Bed Bath and Beyond with one of their 25% off coupons.
Does BB&B have BPA-free plastic containers?
