   Have you looked into collapsible silicone containers? Brands like Sea to Summit make collapsible bowls and plates that are silicone — they're microwave safe, freezer safe, don't hold odors, and they collapse flat which would be huge for his limited space. The lids are silicone too so no plastic there. They're super lightweight, basically indestructible, and if he needs to rinse one at a gas station bathroom sink it takes like 10 seconds. Not as rigid as glass but honestly that's kind of a plus in a moving truck — no shattering. Not the cheapest upfront but they last forever. Another option — Stasher silicone bags. Basically reusable silicone Ziploc bags. You can freeze meals flat in them (saves a ton of space in a 3 cu ft freezer), microwave them right in the bag, and they wash out easy. For a trucker doing week-long runs, the space savings from freezing things flat vs. in bulky containers could make a real difference. Good luck to him out there — long haul is no joke.

   Weird meal prep container question - I have a question about storage containers for a kind of niche issue. A member of my household is a long-haul trucker, but he does weekly runs. Truck stop options are generally garbage. If he's going to be home weekly, since I'm already doing food prep on the weekend, it's just as easy to throw some stuff in a container for him. I have Souper Cubes and I personally use Pyrex with silicone lids (or microwave without the lid on) if I'm bringing something to work, however, heavy glass is not really practical for him. Does anyone have any suggestions for these requirements? * **Food safe** * Sealable * Reusable * Microwavable * Freezer safe * Not plastic * Not heavy (Pyrex/some other borosilicate glass, ceramic, etc) * Won't hold odors or stain * Preferably collapsible * Dishwasher safe would be nice but is not a deal-breaker; I'll hand wash if I have to. The idea is that we freeze the meals in advance and when he leaves for the week, he leaves with a week's worth of frozen meals and shoves them in his fridge/freezer. When he stops to eat, he grabs a meal, heats it up, \*does not have to throw away the container\*, but also does not need to stick it back in the fridge. Space is a huge issue; he has a fridge/freezer that's about 3 cubic feet total and buying additional appliances is not currently in the budget. He's not always going to be at a location that has running water, so expecting him to wash the dishes is really just not especially practical. Yes I'm aware that if food residue sits for a week unrefrigerated it's likely to get gross; I've no sense of smell so I don't care, and if there's enough mold to concern me I'll throw on an N-95 mask and take them outside and hose them out before washing them. Pyrex and ceramic are too heavy/bulky, stainless steel is lighter but not microwavable, and if we end up having to go with plastic I'm probably just going to go with the Take-Aways. :-/ I know that's kind of a niche issue but I'm not having much help with Dr. Google. Thanks in advance!

   A chip on the rim and then thermal shock could cause that! Maybe a production defect in the glass! It's not safe for use anymore! Discard it safely and buy a new one.

   if that's one of the containers from the costco set that i had then they're just not the strongest glass. I was clipping the lid onto one and the whole thing cracked in half in my hands

   Oh not! That's the worst thing! Glass so clean and good for storage but so fragile. TnT
