u/chioubacca · 20 pointsr/BuyItForLife

The things I use the most are this pyrex set and 5 sets of apilco dinnerware. We also got flatware sets from Fortessa that I love but they are not dishwasher safe. I wish I had paid more attention to that detail when I put it on our list.

I suggest getting good knives as well. Not a set - here's a good write up about why a knife block set isn't a great idea. All you need to start with is an 8-inch chef's knife, serrated knife and paring knife. Victorinox is a good brand. Then as you cook more together you can figure out if you need things like a boning/fish knife or kitchen shears, etc.

Congratulations!

They did, but they're hard to find for a reasonable price now. They also only had two equally sized compartments:

These are what I use. Good size, sturdy, and much less expensive. They kinda make it look like you hoard Chinese takeout containers, but oh well

u/JohnWickIII · 15 pointsr/leaves

I want to be able to smoke but I have to buy by the ounce. Its the only way my connect sells. By the ounce. With my work schedule, I'm done work and home by 1:05pm. The weed sitting in the jar is like the equivalent of "money burning a hole in my pocket" and since I have it, I smoke it. I bought this time lock container and it's absolutely given me control (or taken it away, I guess) over weed. If I know I can't smoke it, I don't crave it. If I know I have if, I won't buy it. I now only smoke Fridays and Saturdays and it's locked the rest of the week. I've lost almost 10 pounds since buying it. I highly suggest it.

u/Teerlys · 12 pointsr/preppers

I wrote this up earlier today for someone who wanted to start getting prepped on ~$75/Month but also wanted to not have to cook the foods. I did include some long term storage as the first step anyway because it's so cheap and easy, but so far as consumables go, this is a good start for you.

--------------------------------------------

A lot of this is a shelf life and storage space issue. If you have plenty of room for storage, I'd start like this:

  • Month 1: This doesn't meet your doesn't-need-to-be-cooked guideline, but it's a really solid start to bulk up on available calories and requires minimal cash and effort, so it's going in anyway. Ignore it if it's not for you.

    Buy two 50lb bags of white rice from a place like Costco or Sam's Club. Find 3 food safe 5 gallon buckets with lids. Get Mylar Bags and O2 Absorbers. Then hit Youtube for instructions on what to do with them. If the Mylar bags bit will hold you back from doing this, then skip them and just clean the buckets then dump rice in them straight. Seal, date, set aside. That's 160,000 calories in month 1. Given normal pantry supplies that stretches things out quite a ways. Plan on rotating out at 7ish years if put straight into the bucket and 20 years if you use the Mylar. Realistically, with Mylar, white rice may be good for much longer than 20 years (most people say 30, but for the minimal investment I'd rotate earlier to be safe).

  • Month 2:

    Grab a Water Bob (not right now though, hurricane season has prices high and stocks low for them). Also, a Sawyer Water Filter or two. That gives you an opportunity to grab an extra hundred gallons of water in your bathtub initially given enough warning, and some water purification options later on.

  • Month 3:

    Assuming you have storage capacity, start looking at #10 cans of food. Those are the cans that are around a foot tall and very wide. Look for things that you would eat and would be usuable in your daily lives, but also ones that would be calorie dense. For example, refried beans, nacho cheese, baked beans, white potatoes, chick peas, chili with beans, etc. Those are things you can use in recipes at home, but can pick them up and store them for a couple of years first. Getting them in the larger can is a better return on investment/dollar than buying smaller ones.

  • Month 4: This is probably more what you were looking for.

    If your pantry isn't topped up with the things your family normally eats, drop that money to get a little deeper on those things. Velveeta cheese, crackers, cans of soup, noodles, peanut butter/jelly, canned vegetables/fruit, pasta/sauce, salsa, dried/canned beans, seasonings, canned meat, canned chili, etc. Date them and make sure to work through the oldest first. Having the normal foods you eat in bulk will likely end up being what gets you through most things (like the current hurricane season, job loss, winter blizzard, etc). Spending on these things can be used to fill out whatever is left of your budget when it gets partially used up on other things. I'd also maybe consider having some flats of bottled water at home as well. I usually keep 4-7 Costco sized ones on hand for my SO and I.

  • Month 5:

    Start looking at longer term bulk water storage. I like 5 gallon stackable water cubes as they're easier to move and use and you buy them as you have a little extra cash here and there, but if you want to bump the budget up a bit for a month and your wife won't look at you like you're crazy, a 55 gallon barrel is a better price per gallon than the individual cubes. Sometimes there's just no replacing having your own clean water source ready to go. Barring all of that, if your family will use them just grab a bunch of flats of bottled water and rotate them. Stacked high they don't take up a ton of floor space.

  • Month 6 and Beyond:

    At this point you're pretty well set initially for both water and food. Keep the pantry stocked and rotating. Add on for long term stored water as you see fit and maybe invest in something like a Big Berkey if you really want to drop some money into it. At that point I'd probably begin considering longer term food storage. More rice, add in some dry beans (roughly 5 year shelf life in Mylar/Buckets), and if you're feeling really into it you can get unground wheat and that will last 30 years or better in Mylar/Buckets. You'll just need to have a hand crank grinder or two to use it.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I get wanting ready to eat foods, and that's pretty easy to do and a great place to start, but as one last recommendation... grab yourself a Propane Burner and a high pressure hose for it so that you can use regular propane tanks. You may be able to eat cold soup out of the can, but it's a lot more comforting when it's warm, and you can pretty easily have the ability to add more of your foods into your diet (like spaghetti or mac and cheese) when you can still have a burner to work with.

Yes, I got them off Amazon, as well!

u/mrstacktrace · 11 pointsr/MealPrepSunday

I use Pyrex glass containers like so: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JJILWQ0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_HMDzzbQMB8TAQ


I got these on sale for $4-6 each from a superstore here. Yes, they're more expensive than plastic, but I built up the collection over time. I can reheat and eat in them, they are easier to clean and I don't worry about plastic juice leeching into my food.

u/eutamias21 · 10 pointsr/EatCheapAndHealthy

Wrap it in paper towel and then put it in a bag. I use Debbie Meyer GreenBags for all my refrigerated produce.

Edit: Also, don’t wash it before storing, only just before using. And I’ve found that lettuces sold in clamshell boxes (e.g. mesclun mixes) never last so I don’t bother with those.

u/ffatty · 10 pointsr/Stims

For anyone curious, here is the Amazon link

Here is a similar, cheaper option

u/HanaLimda · 10 pointsr/MealPrepSunday
u/PettaFile · 9 pointsr/preppers

We use all of our 5 gal mylar with bucket/gamma seal. Simply because they stack and give the bag and contents structure. Also an often overlooked function that should be considered is when the contents of the mylar is gone, remove mylar bag and you have a nearly air tight container for other food you harvest or forage as well as storage for water.

These are the ones we use and the link to where we got them. Good heavy mylar bags and absorbers.

u/bsopaige · 9 pointsr/MealPrepSunday

These are awesome for salads: https://smile.amazon.com/Sistema-Collection-Salad-Storage-Container/dp/B004R97IJ6/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1479840003&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=martha+stewart+salad+to+go+container

They could be considered a tad on the small side for someone who eats a lot of calories, but for me I always feel plenty satisfied from the amount of salad it holds. I fill the main container with lettuce, cherry tomatoes and cucumber slices, and then fill the top two compartments with cubed grilled chicken. And the convenience of built-in silverware and dressing container is too good to pass up. You'd think the dressing cup would be too small, I think it's only 2 TBSP, but I use homemade italian dressing and it's plenty.

u/yrrosimyarin · 9 pointsr/Fitness

Deli containers. Cheaper than dirt, but really sturdy. About 50 cents each here:

http://www.amazon.com/Reditainer-Storage-Containers-16-Ounce-36-Pack/dp/B00M9Z4SXY/

Pros:

  • Sturdy enough to reuse for well over a year.
  • Cheap enough to throw away when they break or get gross.
  • Microwavable
  • Dishwashable
  • They hold up to freezing really well.
  • The different sizes all use the same lid, and all stack.
  • Come in bigger sizes without being much more expensive.
  • Can buy a pack of all one size instead mixed sets only.

    Cons:

  • Not as fancy as glass
  • Shape doesn't fit as well into short fridge shelves
  • Can't buy in grocery stores.
  • Not a good shape for eating out of directly in the larger sizes.

    We have some of the pyrex glass. I love them, but the rubber lids crack after a year or two, and are annoying to replace. I also feel uncomfortable with the idea of bringing them places and forgetting them/dropping them and breaking them, given their cost.

    We've also tried the various "reusable disposable" types from the grocery, and they hate freezing and are nowhere close to as sturdy as these.

    If I sound like a salesman, it's because I've been so damn happy when I found these things and managed to replace all of the mismatched reused yogurt and butter containers cluttering our cupboards.

For freezing leftovers, I use Pryex bowls with plastic lids. I have had the same set for over 10 years. My mother uses her Tupperware that is 40+ years old. It is only waste when you throw it away.

u/phe_nata · 8 pointsr/MealPrepSunday

I like pyrex ones. They're pricey but they will last forever. I've had mine at least 5 years. You can find them in round shapes or rectangular shapes. They also come in sets.

u/cribley · 7 pointsr/preppers

As long as you use mylar bags, you could store your food in a pile of manure, and it would be fine. The container is to keep the bag from getting punctured.

Personally I use non-food grade buckets from lowes / menards / home depot, depending upon what color i want, and 5 gallon sealed mylar bags.

I do have a few food grade buckets and gamma lids for easy storage after opening said bags though.

u/---YNWA--- · 7 pointsr/cigars
u/LouisesRabbytEars · 7 pointsr/MealPrepSunday

It's really cool that your gf wants to start meal prepping, she definitely should give it a try! :)

​

Bear with me in case this turns into a 'novel'...

​

The first and maybe best piece of advice I can give is to take the whole mystique out of it. Meal prepping really is not some mysterious, ritualized, uncharted intimidating endeavor that you need to meticulously set up for. There's honestly not much more to it than cooking foods that you (1)enjoy and (2)will keep well for a few days in the fridge and/or freezer. As much as people hate to hear it, and there honestly is a debate over this, meal prepping can really be thought of as glorified leftovers. You cook a meal and eat it later on. To some people that qualifies as leftovers. To others, you might as well have cursed their sweet granny to burning hell for even daring to say that. Semantics.

​

You'll want to first decide your purpose for meal prepping.

  • Do you want to save money?
  • Do you want to eat healthier in general? Or do you have specific health needs or goals like counting macros or reducing sodium intake, etc.?
  • Do you want to merely save time and not have to think about what you'll be eating every day?
  • Do you want to just experiment and try new dishes you otherwise wouldn't have been interested in before?

    ​

    Get an idea of the purpose of your meal prepping. Then you'll get into equipment.

  • Plastic containers such as the ones pinned to the top of this subreddit are great if you want more containers and want to spend less. They're more lightweight than glass, and most of them are microwaveable. You'll want BPA free. Some may not last as long, and some don't hold up over multiple washings very well. But the better ones are good for pretty much anything you want to make. It sort of depends on if you have issues with plastics or not.
  • Glass (my own preference) is heavier and more pricey for the the number of containers you'll get in a set, but the better ones, such as these, can go in the microwave and in the oven, are dishwasher safe, freezer safe, and durable. They'll usually come with either 0, 1, or 2 dividers (making them 1 big compartment, 2 compartments, or 3) and, like the plastic ones, have snap-on lids. It's a personal preference, really.
  • There are rectangular, square and even round containers that will be available. It all depends on the meals you'll be making most often - baked chicken, wild rice and asparagus would suit well in a 2 or 3 compartment container. A teriyaki stir fry would work in anything, and even a round container, making it basically a teriyaki bowl.
  • You might want to get small plastic ramekins with leak-proof lids to hold condiments like sauces and dressings IF you think you'll be using them. It isn't a must-have, but can be a nice addition. Also smaller bowls to hold fresh fruit or nuts as a side dish come in pretty handy, but again, not totally necessary.
  • Amazon has a treasure-trove of good containers, and probably other places like the Container Store.
  • You'll amass containers as time goes on, and as you start to realize exactly what you needs are. Start with a few basics to get going.

    ​

    Yummy, now the food part:

    As far as meal prep recipes, your limit is Google. Literally Google and Pinterest and anywhere else you can find a recipe, so basically the sky is the limit. Many dishes can be made into a meal prep - the recipe does not have to be "meal prep specific". Spaghetti and meat sauce can be a meal prep (my husband had that last week). Casseroles, meat dishes, slow cooker meals like stroganoff or pot roast, pasta dishes, Asian food dishes, fish...too many to name, as long as it will keep well for a few days and reheat well. Again, your purpose for meal prepping comes into play big time here:

  • If you're prepping solely for budget purposes, then a blackened miso cod dish with truffles isn't gonna cut it. You'll want to look for good sales on ingredients at the store, search online for delicious meals you can make on a budget, etc. Many 'mom' blogs are excellent sources for this as they'll show how to make great dishes to feed a large family (for meal prepping, the "large family" is you, but over the course of a few days!). Many time-saving meal preps will be found within budget-friendly recipe sources as well.
  • For healthy prepping, look for substitutes of familiar favorites. Spaghetti squash and zucchini can be shred into noodles that beautifully mimic pasta noodles, cutting a significant amount of carbs. Turkey sausage or meatless options can sub for pork. Big portobello mushrooms can make excellent substitutes for ground meat patties in a meatless burger. Learn which veggies are sources of which vitamins and minerals you want to add to your diet. There are more health-conscious meal and recipe sites than there are grains of sand on Earth, so it should be super easy to find what you're looking for. If you're into macros, again, many many sources for that information to get you started.
  • If health and budget don't concern you as much, and your cooking options are pretty broad, then you have literally A TON of recipe options. As with any other recipes for meal prep, what you want are foods that you'll enjoy. The more you like the food, the less you'll mind eating it for 3, 4, 5 days, and you'll look more forward to actually cooking the food and discovering new dishes and techniques. Make it fun. Restaurant and fast food copycat recipes can be excellent for this IF the dishes hold up well to being refrigerated or frozen for several days. You can search online for advice on certain foods, but a lot of it is trial and error, honestly. Carino's restaurant has this Garlic Jalapeno Tilapia dish that I absolutely adore, but how often do we actually ever go there to eat it? Occasionally in the distant past, never now. So several years ago I found a perfect -- I mean PERFECT copycat recipe. Better than the original. I decided a few months ago to give it a shot for meal prep. Hah. It wasn't terrible, the taste was still really good, but the reheating wasn't problem free, and it wasn't great after 4 days. Would I do it again? Yes, but ONLY as a 2-day meal prep. Trial and error.
  • Don't depend solely on r/MealPrepSunday for recipe inspiration. I cannot stress this enough. There is a WORLD of fantastic food ideas out there, and it honestly doesn't take that much searching. There are many cookbooks as well, and the more you search, the more you'll find exciting new possibilities. Try to have some ideas in mind as to what you want to eat, and then find it.

u/roadtripkratom · 6 pointsr/opiates

My only access to opis is a friend's script once a month that I am able to buy 30 of (10mg norco), and I am so careful with them after meeting up lol. I put them all in this thing - partly for safe keeping, and partly because they'll be gone within a week if left to my own device...so after many attempts without, now I lock half of them up (until 10 days later) so I can make them last a bit longer until the next refill. At least I can't lose them!

u/Astramancer_ · 5 pointsr/LifeProTips

It's more expensive and heavier, but I LOVE my pyrex storage containers.

If you never give in to the desire to microwave your food directly in the container, it's not that big a deal, but if you do? Pyrex (or other glass storage containers) for the win! I've had them for years and don't have to deal with that stained, rough, burn-in that you get from microwaving plastic ones (microwave safe my ass)

u/Stampson · 5 pointsr/EatCheapAndHealthy

Why not just buy one pyrex set when it goes on sale? Target & Walmart usually have the set linked on sale.

I use pyrex for leftover storage, baking, reheating, and lunch packing. They are very durable and the lids are top and bottom dishwasher safe.

http://www.amazon.com/Pyrex-6022369-Storage-14-Piece-Round/dp/B0000CFTB0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1409619654&sr=8-1&keywords=pyrex+glass+storage+containers+with+lids

u/Tinfoil_Haberdashery · 5 pointsr/trailmeals

1-2 weeks seems really, really fast for rancidity. I've never messed with dehydrated ground beef or anything, but most meats I've used (tuna, shrimp, chicken) last quite a bit longer.

Rancidity is the interaction between fat and oxygen, so ways to preserve meats from going rancid are 1) low fat and 2) low oxygen. Using only lean meat and trying to reduce excess grease is step 1. After that, yes, a vacuum sealer will help. These might also be worth it if you're really worried.

u/wine-o-saur · 5 pointsr/Cooking

You can get reusable silicone pouches. That's what I'd go with.

u/The_Blue_Ollie · 5 pointsr/WhitePeopleTwitter

Step 1 - Donate all Tupperware, Gladware and other assorted containers and misc. mismatched lids.

Step 2 - Buy 3 sets of these: https://www.amazon.com/Reditainer-Storage-Containers-16-Ounce-36-Pack/dp/B00M9Z4SXY/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=reditainer&qid=1572559454&refinements=p_85%3A2470955011&rnid=2470954011&rps=1&sprefix=redditta&sr=8-3

1 set of 8 oz, 1 set of 16 oz, and one set of 32 oz.

They all use identical lids - never worry about not finding the right lid again.

u/hellopooop · 5 pointsr/ZeroWaste

There's a few things that I consider when I'm meal prepping or storing left overs...

Will this be an item I'm going to want to reheat in this container? If that's the case, then glass is the best option. It's generally not lightweight. But for going to work it prevents me having to put it on a paper plate at work to reheat it. I have a set similar to this.

If it's not going to be reheated in the same place, I go for something more lightweight like these.

Also I have continued using any plastic tupperware in my house for things I won't be reheating.

This is the one I use and it has never leaked on me. It comes with a brick that you fill with water to make into an ice pack, clip on knife and fork, and dressing container. They sell one without the ice brick that is smaller capacity as well if that's more your style:

They're microwave and dishwasher safe. If you have a Costco membership, you can get them for $8!

u/LegendaryDrive · 4 pointsr/chastitytraining

Another +1 for the kitchen safe. $59 for the mini on Amazon. You can take the batteries out after you set it. It stores the time indefinitely. So, if you wanted 60 days, you’d set it for 10, take the batteries out, and then put them back in on the 50th day. Zero ways to hack it, unless you break the safe. Been huge for me as a self locker.

u/Levema · 3 pointsr/BuyItForLife

My mom has these pyrex dishes and I am super jealous every time I go over there.

She's got a variety of sizes, but the round ones work great for lunch-sized portions of stuff and the square ones are excellent for making leftovers fit in the fridge easiy.

Mom's had hers for at least five years (and possibly more). The lids are still intact, fit well and aren't warped or discolored and the glass is just like most pyrex glass - still pretty much pristine.

u/Jenivare · 3 pointsr/preppers

I recommend these buckets. These lidsand these Mylar bags.

u/Leopardball · 3 pointsr/konmari

I made the switch over to clear containers after dealing with pantry moths. Got a bunch of these and I couldn't be happier with them. They keep things from going stale (great for my household, where we usually ended up tossing 75% of each box of cereal because we just don't eat it that often), my pantry looks neat, and I can see at a glance what I do and don't have. They aren't cheap, but if they fall within your budget, I'd definitely recommend them.

u/jordanwilson23 · 3 pointsr/FulfillmentByAmazon

Incorrect. It is to allow AMAZON to make money off those items. Look at all the brands that are gated. Amazon is on almost all of the listings. It is a fucked system that leaves the consumers paying more. Look at OXO here for example. They sell direct to Amazon. Their MAP is 99.95. If you undercut that price, Amazon will go to OXO and then block you. You can sell on that listing all day at 99.95 without issue because that takes pretty much no sales from Amazon. I used to sell this item and could offer it at 79.99 and make money. To take this listing a step further, Amazon makes it a variation with "frustration free" packaging which is just a BS way for them to take even more sales. Look at Dewalt, Makita, Bosch, Victorinox. It is all about Amazon making the money.

I have been on both ends of gating and it pisses me off. Oh, a Dewalt drill selling at a good price? This must be fake. lol. On the other hand I have a listing with 90 counterfeit sellers in the last 4 months and I have to do a test buy, open an A to Z claim, take pictures of everything because they won't gate me. Their system is for Amazon, not the brand or the seller.

u/impetuousraven · 3 pointsr/ttcafterloss

I hear ya, it is definitely easy to use a lot of them. I will say, we do actually wash and reuse the freezer bags. They are fairly tough, so they can be used a few times before they are done.

If you want to keep your produce fresh longer, buy some green bags. They are reusable, washable and they really work. They cost about $10, but they more than pay for themself. I've kept organic peaches fresh for 2 weeks. You use one for vegetables and one for your fruit. They work inside and outside of the fridge.

PSA: Deli containers are an amazing way to organize your pantry and fridge

These dudes: 8 ounce 16 ounce and 32 ounce.

I saw that this is what's done in professional kitchens so i tried it out myself and oh my god, it's changed my life. I cook a wide variety of ethnic foods and have lots of dried chilis/whole spices/dried mushrooms etc. I also have a lot of dried beans and grains and specialty flours. Instead of having all this stuff in haphazard bags, now they're all stacked neatly and easily accessible, with clear labels (I used masking tape with permanent market to make labels).

Plus, it makes it easy to save extra tomato paste/buttermilk/pasta sauce/pesto/wine/stock to put in the freezer to take out when I need it. My freezer has never been so organized.

u/fritocloud · 3 pointsr/IAmA

If she is working and doing well and she is doing better than she was when she was on oxycontin, in my opinion, that is a very good thing. I am a recovering opiate addict with over 2.5 years clean. I have been on suboxone for over 4 years (had a couple relapses at first, until I got my dose properly adjusted.) What I always tell people is I don't mind being dependent on a drug if I am doing well in all other areas of my life and if I am not doing any of the negative behaviors that I was doing before (stealing, lying, driving while impaired, etc.)

That being said, I know that some addicts can feel a compulsion to take more suboxone than they are prescribed. It is very odd because taking more suboxone does not make you feel high or anything like that. Once you are on a stable dose, it feels like taking any other medication every day. But I think our addiction leaves us with some habits that don't always make sense. I have known people that would inject water into their veins, just because they needed to inject something. This might be happening with your family member. I would say that if she isn't taking more than she is prescribed, don't worry too much about it. This stuff all gets easier with time and distance from active addiction. However, if she is taking more than she is prescribed that is a problem, mainly because she is going to run out early and that will really increase her chance for relapse. If she goes to the street to buy more, it can be very triggering and possibly cause her to buy something stronger. I would maybe talk to her about your concerns but make sure to come from a place of love and support. It would probably be very helpful if you acknowledged all the progress she has made and how well she is doing currently. Do not make any accusations as that will make her defensive and less likely to want to engage in conversation with you.

If she agrees with you and is worried about taking more than prescribed, maybe an arrangement can be made. When I first got on suboxone, I had a family member hold on to it for me and they would dispense it every day to me for the first month or 2. As I got more stable and strong in my recovery, I took control of my own medicine and have not had any issues with taking more than I was supposed to. I have a friend who recently got clean who uses this kitchen lock box. It has a timer and you can set it for any amount of time in the future, up to 7 or 10 days, I think. What my friend does is she takes her AM dose in the morning, puts the medicine back in the box and then sets the lock for 8 or 10 hours or whatever amount of time until her PM dose. The safe opens up when it is time to take her next dose and then she puts her medicine back in and sets the timer for the next morning for her AM dose again. She told me this really helps her because if she knows it isn't really an option, she doesn't think about it. Keep in mind, this would take some element of will power since all it would take is something like a hammer to get into the box prematurely but with the price at $70 to replace, there is a deterrence factor there. The person using it also needs to be able to not just take more out when the box is opened for their dose. I don't think this safe/box would work for most addicts if something like heroin was in the box (they would smash it for sure.) But like I said, suboxone doesn't get you high and so I think this would work for a lot of addicts who are having minor cravings to take some extra suboxone throughout the day. My friend has been doing this for 2 or 3 months and hasn't had any issues. She said it has been a relief that she doesn't have to think about maybe taking some extra suboxone every day.

I do want to note that as far as I know, not all addicts have cravings for suboxone while they are taking suboxone. And from what I've seen, the ones who do generally get better with time and distance from their addiction. In my opinion, suboxone is a wonderful treatment for opiate addiction and I don't want anyone to think that it shouldn't be used because some addicts get cravings for it. I think that is just old habits from their addiction and there are definitely ways to "treat" or manage those habits. Therapy is another thing that should be looked into as it really increases an addicts chances of recovery, especially when used in conjunction with suboxone/MAT. I hope this comment was helpful and please let me know if you have any more questions. I am not an expert like the OP is but I do have a lot of experience with addiction and treatment so I think/hope that my opinions and advice can be useful to other people.

I will tell you that this book called Why We Get Fat and What to do about it is the best thing that I have ever read about nutrition and weight loss. It's not a "diet" book or even a science book...it's just the story of how all this works in your body and the history behind where we are today.

Once you know, then start simply by phasing out the stuff you shouldn't eat. Change your shopping trips to only fresh foods with a few condiments and other staples. Learn to read labels and consider food value along with the price. This is where you have to start figuring out the way to cook this food that works for you. Cookbooks help, but I really think google is the way to go here. You want simplicity so that a complex recipe is not standing between you and your dinner - or the "skip all that work and get junk!" voice starts calling. This step takes from 1-6 months to really get down solidly.

Once you know what you like and how you prepare it, then you can start getting the kitchen tools that are key to your eating. Our items that I cannot live without are a juicer, Vitamix and a grill/smoker. Also, glass portion containers (these) so I can cook in bulk one day a week and portion for the rest of the week.

Good luck on your weight loss!

Very interesting, thanks.

Yes I have also shared your experience that sous vide doesn't really need 0.1° precision to produce a great steak.

I've tried the silicone bags and stopped using them because the thicker walls add time (reduced heat transfer) and it's hard to get all the air out (increased time, float). That's the Lekue. Perhaps a different design could work better.

Yes, they're much heavier than plastic.

Here's why I use them:

  1. I studied epigenetics as part of my undergrad thesis and have become very paranoid of plastics, particularly here in the US where it's been proven that making money is more important than producing a safe product. Heated plastics can and do leach chemicals that affect genes within your body. Those genes may not impact you but may impact your offspring. There is a ton of evidence for this in humans and the animal world. Just because it's BPA-free does not mean it is created using safer materials.

  2. They're actually really sturdy and after 3 years of daily use I have yet to have a breakage.

  3. When you want to, you can cook in them. Just this week I baked enchiladas in the dishes, cooled on the stove, then refrigerated. I've also done personal pizzas cooked in there, pot pie etc.

  4. I'm pretty sure my initial purchase cost for my set of 9 was under $30. Literally use them everyday $30/1095 and counting.

Good for you! its not easy but once you start you will feel so much better!

First make a meal plan for the week ie. How many days are you going to have that you can or will cook for the week. plan accordingly that way you can eat leftovers in between cooking days.

Also plan around your staples for the least expensive menu. That being said you can cook a large amount of something such as chili, spaghetti sauce, soups etc... and freeze them in serving sized containers to make an easy meal for lunch or dinner if you find you don't have enough time to cook. the crock pot can take care of a lot of that for you.

Meal prep containers are a great way to freeze and to portion control your food. like these I love these use them all the time

These are great for things like Spaghetti, or lasagna, enchiladas etc...

Look for food containers

There ya go, 36 small pots for $12. You can get the 32oz variety as well, 25 for $9, something like that... any food-safe container can be used for growing plants. Yogurt containers, dairy cartons, sliced open 1/2 gallon milk / tea containers, etc... use your imagination. Juice bottles? It was safe for your juice, it's safe for your plants! Reuse it.

u/findable · 2 pointsr/Cooking
  1. Throw out your current containers
  2. Replace with different size take-out style containers
  3. Grab any lid because they fit every size

    The only drawback to this method is you don't get the square shaped kind which works well for work lunches. For fridge and freezer storage it works great. They stack, last a good while, and if the container breaks or gets old, just toss it because they are super cheap.
u/Hollyingrd6 · 2 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I love cooking and while I can not help you with the soap and other beauty products I can help you with the cooking utensils

As said before- Pyrex Is the way to go when getting rid of plastic (29$)

For Cooking utentisls I would never recommend stainless as it gets so hot and can ruin certain pans. Instead Wooden is the way to go for 6$

As a bonus here is a link to disposable wooden utensils for camping and holiday use for 20$ so you wouldn't have to use plastic.

If you don't have one a steamer is a life changing item, this steamer and ricecooker gadet is a great combo for you. You can use it strictly for gluten free cooking and let your family have their rice made on the stove. at 15$

I highly recommend Pyrex for your measuring cups too. They work in the microwave and are pretty amazing for 15.

I agree that stainless pots are the way to go I checked out the reviews on this set and found that it has the best costumer service and finishing at 57$

I don't know if this helps or not but I did try! Good luck stopping smoking and if I win surprise me!

u/Oodles_of_noodles_ · 2 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I buy gift cards from Kroger because of the gas points :D

Also, if you haven't already, try the Kind brand bars for snacking. They have other great things too like cereal and other goodies.

You're going to think I'm crazy, but baby wash is so good to use for bathing. It's gentle on the skin. The shampoo is a good idea too. Also, it doesn't have to be bought from Pantry.

Mixing bowls in steel so you know you can get them hot in the sink or dishwasher and they'll be clean.

If you need food storage, get rid of the porous plastic and go with Pyrex, which is glass.

Again, I think stainless is the way to go. You can see if there's something on it, there's no extra lining (like non-stick that chips) and you can get it hot and completely sanitize it. I like this cooking set and you can add the cooking utensils too!

If I win, just surprise me :)

This stuff (minus the wash) puts you at about $130 so in between your ~$100-$150

u/OktoberForever · 2 pointsr/ants

Yeah, I generally keep food around for them in the outworld and replace it every four days or so (making sure it doesn't get gross). They're not like fish, you can't really overfeed them. They eat as much as possible, then share their extra food with other ants (look up "social stomach"), some of whom share their food with the Queen, who responds to a caloric surplus by producing more eggs, but they also regulate themselves so that they don't eat too much.

Regarding keeping them in, I have found C. penns to be pretty lazy and docile. Mine will not cross a thin layer of oil applied to the upper inside edge of the container. I use a thin, inorganic oil like mineral oil applied with a q-tip, but something organic like coconut oil would also work (it will go rancid/polymerize at some point, though and might get sticky and stop working). I can leave the lid off of my outworld with decent confidence that nobody will escape, however, I almost always DO use the lid just because I have one. I started using these Rubbermaid Briliance acrylic containers which are perfect, because when you pop the lid clamps off, you have two nice air holes pre-drilled in the lid!

Wipe out whatever you get with water WITHOUT soap so it doesn’t leave any residue and impact and sticks in it later. Once it dries, throw your calibrated hygrometer in with a pack or two and you’re off to the races. Any Spanish cedar needs seasoning, I don’t have any atm though.

A lot of people here use MyFitnessPal - personally, I prefer SparkPeople (lets you set a calorie range rather than a single daily target, easy to save favorite foods and groups of foods, easy to enter your own recipes, syncs with Fitbit, but has some social media and advertising aspects integrated with it that can be off-putting).

My boyfriend is on his own for food making choices, so I'm no help to you there! lol

And as for food containers, I prefer glass to plastic for its ability to be microwaved without staining or leaching. Wide mouth 2 cup mason jars work really well for soups/stews/chili, and since they are designed to be airtight they don't leak at all. And they are cheap! You do have to remove the lid to microwave, though.

For larger meals (salads, meat and veggie leftovers, etc) Pyrex and Rubbermaid sell glass containers with plastic lids in a wide variety of sizes and shapes. They're a bit more expensive than the canning jars but glass holds up well so it's worth the investment, IMHO.

Good luck!

My boyfriend and I use the pyrex tupperware containers with lids

http://www.amazon.com/Pyrex-Storage-10-Piece-Clear-Blue/dp/B00005B8K5

you can microwave them and dish wash them and they are pretty solid

u/[deleted] · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

A Pyrex set of storage dishes! These things are amazing. My mom had a set like this and I've wanted one of my own ever since I moved out myself.

You can bake in the oven with these, or microwave, store stuff in the fridge, and it's perfectly dishwasher safe. And you can just eat out of it. You can put ingredients in this and they never have to leave the bowl until you're done eating it. It even has a warranty so if you manage to crack it somehow, in the first couple of years, they'll replace it.

I love Pyrex, can you tell? And you need some, because you're a big girl now!

u/Testiculese · 1 pointr/LifeProTips

Never tried mason jars. I picked up a dozen Pyrex storage things (The two square ones) and use the little ones to pack lunches for the week.

As the majority of my lunches are homemade soups/stews, (I make gallons at a time) or rice/veggie-based, this makes it really convenient for portion control, and I can stack them.

u/DonaldMcRonald · 1 pointr/vegan

Here's the kind of baking dish I was thinking of.

Obviously everyone (that normally watch this sort of thing) is keeping their eye on the situation, so I'm going to answer this as if you are actually inquiring.

Thus far I've used US Plastic for all of my food and other long term supply containers. They have been great to deal with and prompt with shipping.

I've ordered [an assortment of these buckets](http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=23220& catid=752) in various colors, because colors are nice and why not?

More importantly, though, I would recommend topping them with the Gamma seal lids. These things are fantastic. Who wants to be using special tools and wrestling with snap on lids when you can just spin one on and off? Pure gold.

The other few items like Mylar liners and oxygen desiccants I have ordered from amazon.

TL/DR Doesn't matter what you do - we're all fscked.

  1. Sawyer water filters are really cheap yet can filter an immense amount of water: http://www.amazon.com/Sawyer-Products-Filtration-System-Single/dp/B00MPH1LU4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1413472747&sr=8-2&keywords=sawyer+one

  2. You can store bulk grains and beans cheaply to provide a large amount of emergency food using Mylar bags and oxygen absorbers along with 5 gallon buckets. These are what I got: http://www.amazon.com/10-2000cc-Oxyfree-Absorbers-Dehydrated-Storage/dp/B001Y0Y8C6/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1413472777&sr=8-2&keywords=mylar+food+storage

    Then just buy 5 gallon hdpe buckets for 2.50 each and lids for 1.50 each from your local hardware store. Add the grains, oxygen absorber, and seal the bag with an iron. Each bucket when filled with rice or beans will provide enough calories for someone for a month. This is wayyyy cheaper than freeze dried food and will last just as long.

  3. A crank flashlight with USB power, only $15: http://www.amazon.com/American-Cross-CLIPRAY-Charger-Flashlight/dp/B003BYROUQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1413472929&sr=8-1&keywords=crank+usb+flashlight . Alternative power flashlights are always good and USB power to devices could either merely convenient or a life safer.

  4. You can convert any trashcan into a rain barrel for much cheaper than buying one using a kit like this: http://www.amazon.com/EarthMinded-RBK-0001-DIY-Rain-Barrel/dp/B005CJFBJE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1413473011&sr=8-1&keywords=rain+barrel+kit

  5. Buy some heavy duty plastic sheeting and Gorilla tape for general purpose use too. They aren't expensive and can be used for so many different things.

  6. With Ebola prep being something to consider now go and get a Flu shot. The symptoms are almost the same as Ebola (until Ebola gets really bad at least) and if the outbreak gets bad in the US you wouldn't want to have to go to the doctor to find out if you've got it or not. They are free if you have insurance and you can get them at most pharmacies.

  7. Find out what food crops grow well in your area's soil type and start experimenting with your own garden. Seeds are cheap and it is better to have a garden established before you need it to grow emergency food.

    I don't think you can avoid spending money to prep, but with these supplies you would be better prepared than 90% of people for not much money.

Cannabinoids degrade in three main ways: Oxidative, UV, and Heat. If you buy some oxygen absorbent on amazon, as well as some desiccant packs, https://www.amazon.com/Oxy-Sorb-Oxygen-Absorbers-Storage-100-Pack/dp/B0028AG8RO
and store the product in the freezer, the product will stay amazingly fresh for a VERY long time. I use the desiccants to keep water from condensing out in the pyrex storage jars I use.

u/Shadowex3 · 1 pointr/wicked_edge

Dude you know dedicated food-safe oxygen absorbers are a thing right? Also use a metal foil to block oxygen, that's why MRE packets are always silvery inside.

u/ShroomyEmpress · 1 pointr/shrooms

Hey _mycelia, do you ever put oxygen absorbers in your vacuum sealed bags? I haven't vacuumed any but I'm thinking about it. Here is a link to some I found on Amazon, plus check out the mason jar sealer that under "Frequeny Bought Together" items on that link.

u/saltyteabag · 1 pointr/tea

Oh, ok. I use my Foodsaver for lots of other stuff.

Unless you're trying to store a huge amount of tea, the size of those bags might be overkill. But, assuming they don't leak or lose their seal, that'd probably work fine. Also, depending on how fluffy or brittle the tea leaves are, the pressure may cause some breakage. I would recommend adding a few packets of oxygen absorber like this to each bag of tea to help keep them fresh longer.

u/JustJoeAKABeans · 1 pointr/Cooking

u/OhKaleYeah · 1 pointr/xxketo

Hi! I was you, like, two weeks ago. I'm also a student and on a budget. I am also a planner, so I need everything planned out ahead of time!

My first week (for dinners) I had: stuffed peppers (cut recipe in half, made two servings), made a half batch of Caveman Chili to freeze (though I did it over the stove instead of the Crock Pot, I have such a hard time planning out Crock Pot meals because I'm never home in time for it not to get overcooked!), Lazy Keto Chicken, etc. etc. I could go on about great recipes I've tried, and there are plenty of websites to help.

For lunches, I typically eat them on the go (during my work-study position). MWF I take "snacky" things like beef sticks, pork rinds, cheese, and nuts (a combination of those things) which keeps me full! On Tuesdays and Thursdays I bring a salad to go in my Sistema plastic container, filled with spinach, chicken slices, bacon, avocado, cheese, and ranch. Pretty protein-heavy, but it's my main meal for the day.

For breakfasts, I don't eat breakfast on MWF because I have Pilates at 9:15 and the typical keto breakfasts fill me up way too much. I drink tons of water and haven't been disappointed yet. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I just eat some eggs and protein (Brown 'n Serve is a brand that makes really cheap, easy sausage that you just throw in a microwave for a minute or two and it's almost all zero carb!). It's pretty adaptable, I've found.

Good luck!

ETA: I found this post for a breakfast shake that might strike your fancy considering what you usually have for breakfast!

u/razumdarsayswhat · 1 pointr/TeamFawn

I have this food scale, though I use it for soap making and not food - it's SUPER accurate.

I use MFP like everyone else to track.

As far as husband and I go, we eat separate breakfasts (we leave the house at different times) except on the weekends, when I cook us both an equal calorie meal. We eat separate lunches (even on the weekends - I usually have a shake or something, he eats eggs/rice/veggies). And then I cook us dinner (but he usually gets a larger portion than me). If he needs more calories or is more hungry, he snacks. I don't unless I also have extra calories. We snack on different food (ex: I'll eat an apple and some peanut butter. He'll eat rice cakes).

For containers, I highly recommend something like this. I LOVE using it, especially to portion a large restaurant meal or something, and have leftovers the next day. If you don't wanna order on Amazon, you can definitely buy these at Home Goods and Marshalls.

I get the same way, "fuck it I'm just going to eat this" coupled with a pretty decent metabolism and iron stomach means no sick-tummy to even regret eating all of that junk afterward!

Honestly, ordering some of THESE and spending all sunday cooking lunches and dinners (breakfast is either a protein shake, or oatmeal, or oatmeal with whey+cinnamon+nutmeg mixed in so I don't pre make it but you can in a slow cooker if you want!) has helped me a lot. When I have decent food (especially with the "cheat meals") already made, it makes it so I don't have to make a decision with eating, which means I can't make a bad decision - it's already made, I pull it out, warm it up, and eat it.

Find what faux-cheat meals you like and be sure you get to eat something you enjoy every single day. Seriously, when I try to go overboard M-Th, I end up binge-eating junk on Friday. If I get the roast+gravy+rice though (or slow cooked pork with cauliflower or potato mash, something southern-comforty), I don't feel like I'm missing out so I'm much less likely to go nuts later in the week when the pre made meals run out.

Get a sweet-cheat, and a savory cheat that you really like, and be sure you enjoy at least one meal a day. :) Those are my tips, adjust as you need until you have a system that works for you.

u/atechnicnate · 1 pointr/MealPrepSunday

Get some Debbie Meyers Green Bags. They are seriously like magic. Once the avocados feel just about ripe, put them into the green bag. They will stay in that perfect state for at least a week, sometimes longer.

Green bags also work for all kinds of other fruits/veggies. I notably use them for citrus (lemons, limes, oranges, grapefruits), which can last like a whole month in a green bag.

I don't own Debbie Meyers stock or anything, I'm just a big fan of the product.

I also get out all the ingredients I need, chop veggies, and generally do as much as possible before I turn on the stove and start cooking. Mise en place is super important! Once you start cooking you never have to scramble around or hastily prep something you forgot. I also clean as I go which is pretty efficient and I don't have to deal with a big mess afterwards.

I recently bought a whole bunch of plastic deli containers on Amazon in 8, 16, and 32oz which I'm unreasonably excited about. I put all my mise en place items in them, they're easy to clean, and great for storing leftovers. Best purchase I've made in a while, I recommend it!

My setup is also based on Akro-Mils drawers and Sterlite drawers and they work great. For other items where I have a lot of a single color, I also use these takeout containers (cheap and very sturdy for the price) http://amzn.com/B00M9Z4SXY . They can be stacked on each other and are clear, so you can see what's inside.

Quick tip: instead of ordering the Akro-Mils drawer dividers separately, just cut index cards down to size. The dividers end up costing almost $1 each, which is crazy for a square piece of plastic, and considering it would cost $40-50 to divide each drawer in the unit, it doesn't make sense when the entire unit is only $27)

u/NotJamesCleverly · 1 pointr/cigars

The Boveda Acrylic humidor looks nice, but you could probably get a more effective and cheaper solution with a Rubbermaid container which are more reliably air-tight. Mine is big enough for ~30 cigars, and I have two 6g Boveda packs in there at 69rh.

Protecting from humidity swings is more of an operational question. I'd say perhaps invest in a good quality sealable bag (Boveda also make one) with another 6g pack in it and try to open your humidor once a week and move your smokes for that week to the bag - so you don't have to keep opening the humidor.

The next factor to consider is temperature. Find a place which will consistently be roughly between 63-73 degrees (F), depending on your climate that might be a garage, a basement, a spare room, and potentially in a cool box to help stabilise it through day/night cycles.

u/Sufferbus · 1 pointr/vaporents

I was using the black plastic meal prep containers but they started to get some crust on them and they broke easily. They are convenient for freezing meals, though, and technically you can microwave and dishwash them as well but I never feel too good about heating food in plastic. They're basically takeout containers.

Currently I'm using glass containers (also from Amazon) with snap lock lids.

Sometimes! Although my hypomania seems to be largely based on time (like it’ll happen a certain amount of time after my depressive episode) or triggered by stress. Gotta admit, Adderall is a pretty great crutch for bipolar disorder. It gives me energy when I’m depressed and calms down my ADHD symptoms when I’m manic. Plus I’m in college, so it’s nice to be able to sit through a lecture without trying to gouge my eyes out.

I know it’s a little bit overkill, but I actually bought a time safe for my Adderall to prevent myself from taking more than my prescribed dose. The reviews were pretty stellar (lots of people commented saying that it helped them with their “adult substances”) and I can’t recommend it enough. I’m at the point where I’m not nearly as addicted to Adderall as I was before, so now it’s more of a security device to prevent my 17yo brother from possibly “borrowing” some. Still a fantastic purchase through, I’d buy it all over again.

Acid free paper will definitely help a lot.

The reason dyes fade with time is mainly because of a process called photooxidation. This basically means that when the dyes absorb light energy they can transfer that energy to oxygen making it more reactive. The elimination of light and oxygen will therefore do a lot to conserve the print. A way you can do this is to obviously use an airtight container but also to use some sachets of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) or iron powder which will scavenge the oxygen left in the container after it is sealed. They do this all the time in the food industry. Keeping everything really dry will also help to reduce oxygen permeation into the ink so maybe chuck in some silica sachets as well (desiccant).

EDIT: O2 absorbers and desiccant.

My storage system consists of a combination of Stack-On Drawers for most of my plates and tile pieces, plus around ~200 Take-Out Containers in several different sizes for most of my other bricks. Additionally I have larger tupperware or plastic bins for any pieces where the amount is too large for the take out containers. I sort by both piece size and color grouping, so the containers work really well and are reasonably cheap. For small unique pieces, I have them in tiny plastic bead bags which you can find at any craft goods store. I then combine a bunch of the bags into plastic containers.

Since I really only build Ancient history type stuff, anything that I know I will never use are just stored in large zip lock bags and then in plastic bins, such as tires, steering wheels, airplane parts, etc. I also have 4 tool compartment storage chests for minifigures.

For me, Lego organization is an on-going process that is constantly refined and updated. I will buy more bins, or boxes to even further separate things. When I initially started like 4 years ago all I had were about 300 storage baggies, and a dozen or so shoe boxes or large plastic totes.

The only thing I could think of would be pyrex glass then. It's not weird, it's just that there's literally ONE direction you can go with this.
