Plastic containers (butter, cool-whip, cottage cheese) we sometimes use to store left-overs in the fridge sometimes. Though we scaled that back a bit and started using clear storage tuppies. Trying to figure out where the heck the butter actually was when the fridge was full of 'butter' containers...
Cocoa 'cans' and such we sometimes use to store dried goods like beans/pasta/rice in the cupboards. Though we scaled that back a bit and started using clear storage tuppies. Trying to figure out where the heck the cocoa actually was when the cupboard was full of 'cocoa' containers...
Coffee cans we sometimes use for storing odds and ends nails, screws, etc. Though we scaled that back a bit and started using clear storage tuppies. Trying to figure out which coffee can held the stupid nails when the tool area was full of those stupid coffee cans...
Peanut butter jars I used to use for rice/beans/pasta because the jars are clear. We pretty much stopped doing that and started using clear storage tuppies. It takes so danged long to get the peanut butter smell out of the plastic jar, no matter how clean you scrub the jar. Using vinegar to get rid of peanut butter smell just made it worse. I don't like my rice to smell like peanut butter or vinegar.
So we re-use butter tubs, cocoa cans, coffee cans, and peanut butter jars for target practice now.
