Pyrex Glass Food Storage Containers vs. Souper Cubes Silicone Freezing Trays

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

• Platinum silicone
• BPA-free polypropylene lid

Common claims

• Platinum food-grade silicone
• Freezer and dishwasher safe
• Stackable

Concerns / watch-outs

• Some platinum silicone products vary in quality — buy from established brands

Notes

One of the most practical silicone food storage tools. Platinum-cured silicone is inert and food-safe at all freezer and dishwasher temperatures.

Cleaner alternatives

• silicone storage bag
• glass meal prep containers
