Ditch Plastic: Why Glass Food Storage Is Worth the Upgrade (and a Sale Is Happening Now)

11

For generations, plastic food storage has been a kitchen mainstay. Many grew up with it, but mounting evidence suggests a healthier and more sustainable alternative exists: glass. The shift away from plastic isn’t just about environmental concerns; it’s also about long-term health, as some plastics can leach chemicals into food.

Currently, Bentgo is making this transition easier with significant discounts on its glass food storage containers. From March 16 to 18, the brand offers 15% off sitewide, celebrating the Spring Equinox. An even better deal runs from March 17 to 24: use code KITCHN25 at checkout for 25% off all products. This makes upgrading affordable and timely.

Why Glass Over Plastic?

The benefits of glass are clear. Unlike plastic, glass is non-porous, meaning it doesn’t absorb food odors, stains, or bacteria. It’s also microwave, oven, freezer, and dishwasher safe without degrading. Most importantly, it eliminates the risk of harmful chemicals leaching into your food.

Bentgo’s glass containers further improve on this by including silicone steam valves in the lids, making reheating effortless, and creating an airtight seal to maximize freshness. The containers are available in rectangular and round versions, sold in sets ranging from four to eighteen pieces.
