Pyrex Glass Food Storage Containers vs. Abeego Beeswax Food Wrap

Materials

• Tempered soda-lime glass
• Plastic or silicone lids

Common claims

• Oven, microwave, and dishwasher safe
• BPA-free lids
• Non-porous glass

Concerns / watch-outs

• Modern Pyrex sold in the US uses tempered soda-lime glass, not borosilicate — more susceptible to thermal shock than older versions
• Plastic lids may contain BPA; look for confirmed BPA-free lids or use silicone alternatives

Notes

Pyrex glass is one of the most recommended non-toxic food storage options. The glass body is completely inert. Replace plastic lids if they become scratched or stained.

Cleaner alternatives

• borosilicate glass container
• mason jar

Materials

• Organic cotton infused with beeswax, tree resin, and jojoba oil

Common claims

• Plastic-free
• Compostable
• Keeps food fresh longer

Concerns / watch-outs

• Not suitable for raw meat
• Cannot be used in the microwave or with hot food
• Wax coating may diminish after 100+ washes

Notes

One of the original beeswax wrap brands. Compostable and completely plastic-free. An excellent replacement for plastic cling wrap around cheese and produce.

Cleaner alternatives

• beeswax food wrap
• silicone stretch lids
