I've tried both. Neither worked. The best thing I tried was a container
from Tupperware. It was designed for cut up veggies. Alas, my husband
broke both containers not long after I got them. They had vents on the end
to allow or disallow air and moisture in and out depending on what you put
in them. He tried to (don't ask me how) open the containers through the
vents and broke them. The other problem was that they took up too much
space in the fridge, particularly when most of the food was used.
