					<description><![CDATA[It would be ideal to find these products freely available everywhere wouldn&#039;t it - there&#039;s a real gap in the marketplace for someone to fill. I live in New Zealand; I use a stainless steel Ecotanka, stainless steel drink bottle with a tough platic lid, which I have had for  years. I have just bought eco lunchboxes (stainless steel 3 piece) off Amazon - they were expensive, but should last forever. For freezing I double wrap meats in waxed paper (compostable) secured with sellotape (biodegrabale cellulose tape) and then freeze them in a recycled food plastic bag. It works well with little waste. I carefully use glass jars in the freezer too, with no disasters yet.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hi Zoë! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Great idea to move away from plastic to more long-lasting reusable tools.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really like my Klean Kanteen Reflect water bottle. It has a stainless steel cap. Works perfectly. I dropped it a few times, so it has some dents, but it&#039;s not too bad. I bought a bottle cover to protect it. The cover is made of wool.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For food, I have a sandwich bag that I use for nuts, hard-boiled eggs, veggies like carrots or cucumbers, and occasionally for sandwiches. Of course you have to be careful that your sandwich does not get squeezed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition, I often use my Sanctus Mundo food containers. These are made of stainless steel and are leak proof. I even use them for soup and sauces. Hardly any dents in these containers, despite frequent usage over the past few years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also have Klean Kanteen food canisters. Those I use if I bring along a warm meal and there is not microwave available. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As to food in my freezer, I use gastronorm containers that are used in the professional catering industry. I bought them online and found them quite affordable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please let me know if you have any questions. Good luck on your plastic-free journey! ]]></description>

Thanks for visiting and for your very helpful comment Susie! It sounds like a good idea to change containers gradually, so it isn&#039;t too expensive and I can work out which ones I like. I will look into the containers you have linked to.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I would highly recommend the Fifty/Fifty water bottles. They are vacuum insulated stainless steel, with plastic lids. I use mine non-stop, and it keeps water cold for 10-12 hours when sealed. ]]></description>
