Carly asked:


I was making a dessert dish and I heated the oven to 350 degrees, I used a plastic container to hold my dish. About 15 minutes later i noticed a strange smell and went to see what was going on, it turns out that the plastic container had melted and was dripping. I let it set so the oven was not as hot, and now i have hardened plastic on the bottom of my oven. How do i get it off?

I see recipes for things like ribs and other meats that call for wrapping your food in plastic wrap, then wrapping it in foil, and then putting it in the oven. The problem I see with this is that all plastic wraps tell you to not use them in the oven.

What kind of things are people using in all these recipes?

I am a net freak and very organized. I like everything to match as well. I have absolutey no bloue in my kitchen. All of my everyday dining ware is antique cream colored and my kitchen is cream with red brick. I hat eot open my cabinets in the side were I store my gladware and tupperware and see these bright bloue lids that do not coordinate with any color oin my kitchen. Does anyone know why in the world they cont just make clear lids…not only would it match any decor but when in use in the fride you could see what’s inside the container?

I can never seem to find the same size lid for my plastic food storage containers. Is there a system out there that uses the same lid for all it’s containers? thanks.

All that I can find is a bunch of single(plastic) food storage containers. By the time you put some food i.e leftovers in each container, all you have are a bunch of single containers scattered in the refrigerator. I would like to find a large plastic container with several compartments and 1 lid.

Because the lids and containers don’t stack all nice and neat.
