I only keep containers some food comes in to capture used oil and grease
that can't go down the drain. Mostly cottage cheese containers because
I love that for breakfast so I go through a couple of tubs a month. The
rest of them I don't keep, they go in the recycle bin rather than
clutter up my cabinets. The only other ones I tend to keep are the
small ones that WisPride cheese comes in. I love that stuff for snacks.
The small containers are useful.
