A Tengu Proof Container

[Tengu]

For food

(And when I mean tengu proof, I have to be able to get into it...)

I want something goo proof for salads.

Tupperware ?

SIGG have redesigned their lunchboxes so don't know if leak proof. Come with a removable silicon liner, so can reheat food in microwave.

Can you be more specific? What kind of "food?" Raw food storage such as jars for dried goods? Storage for cooked foods for the fridge? (such as the aforementioned Tupperware? Storage for lunch away from home? (such as ziplock bags, Tupperware, thermos jugs, etc.)

I was in hurry, its for taking stuff to college, save me spending out on takeaways (I am very keen on takeaways...but not if I dont fancy them that day)

And Im not keen on sandwedges

So, salads

I have one of these and its good, but maybe a bit small for my huge appetite?

You know those stainless steel Indian food containers? Tiffin boxes?
I recommend those. Not 100% air and water tight, but far more environment friendly and hygienic than plastic. Lasts your natural and unnatural life out.

They come in 2 container, 3 container and 4 container.
Plenty of space for food to satisfy your huge appetite!

I have a tiffin tin.

No seal. I want something liquid proof.

Those Black and Brum containers look good, but they are a bit pricey.

Bento box? Some are water tight.

Personally I avoid plastic. Do not like to eat the stuff. Get enough plastic through eating fish.

Then try searching for a larger one

Do they still make those S/s vacuum flasks with wide mouth?

£land has been stocking some pretty good storage options like this for a while but they are all over the place and come in a selection of shapes & sizes

Positive action clips to secure the lid and a proper water tight with an actual rubber gasket seal.
Got some of the smaller ones for the gear that has to stay dry no matter what like first aid kit, cell-phone, camera, spare batteries etc.
Tough little boxes, if they came in black you would swear Pelican were making tupperware

+1 for these.

I've been using them for years for food and technical equipment which is sometimes left out for weeks on end (and even buried!).

They are great boxes but I would recommend wrapping them in a good adhesive tape like that olive green 3M stuff recently on offer at Lidl.

   Liquid proof? Try a ball, mason jar. They come in sizes from a halp pint (US) to a half gallon (US)

And they come by the case

I have about 30 kilners at home. But I want something shatterproof.

I bought a couple of those £land ones today; I will see how they do.

(After a overnight test.)

Empties plastic soft drink bottles? (from 1/2 liter to 2 liters sizes) Empty plastic milk jugs? (Maybe the 1 gallon ones)

+1 for the Lock&Lock plastic boxes. I bought mine from a kitchenware shop near my parents, if I had to find them locally I am not sure where I would go. I find that the genuine Lock&Lock are significantly better than the generic supermarket versions. The clips on the supermarket ones do not always clip down, or stay that way over time. I use these boxes for food, including dressed salad, but also for pocket size expedition fishing tackle, first aid kits, camera and electronics when I am canoeing and general small parts and treasures that I want to stay together and be protected from damp.
