We don’t know about you, but it’s tough enough forcing ourselves to prepare lunch the night before work without the added hassle of finding a container with a matching lid. Food storage constantly looks old fast, is clunky to carry around, and let’s face it, is pretty ugly. And it’s not like only you will see it, because when you get to work, you have to shove it in a packed fridge surrounded by your co-workers’ delicious looking takeout meals or perfectly organized bentos.
