Yeah, we have those but then she has to bring them back home to be washed.
What I liked about the single serve ones was they could just be thrown away.
I really hate containers. They just take up too much room in my kitchen
that I don't have. If I have leftovers, I usually put them in a plastic bag
so I can just throw it out when I am done.
