Tomatoes, greasy sauces, or highly-pigmented foods like beets can stain Zip Top bags and containers. While it won’t affect the performance, it won’t look clean, and the stains can persist, even after several washes. The bag must be no larger than one quart in volume (1 liter in Europe) and must be clear (see-through) and resealable. While these containers boast plenty of benefits, there are some cons to consider. Let’s take a look at the negatives, so you get the whole picture. Seal Is Not AirtightPlatinum silicone is a high-quality, food-grade, and skin-safe polymer. It is often used to create baby bottle nipples and surgical materials. One-piece Design Rather than a zip, grip seal bags are opened and closed using a simple plastic grip seal that runs along the top of the bag. This grip seal is comprised of two plastic ridges (one male and one female) that fit neatly one inside the other to clasp the bag shut when squeezed together. The most common complaint about Zip Top containers is that the seal is not airtight, and in my testing, I found this gripe to be valid.

Bottom line — Zip Top containers are incredibly versatile and ideal for solid food storage at home. But there are some limitations. If you are taking your goldfish on vacation with you then you will be pleased to hear that when transporting live fish in your carry on they can be in more than 3.4 ounces of water and do not need to go in a liquids bag. Frozen liquids All of Zip Top's food storage containers comprise food grade platinum silicone, which is the highest grade of silicone and is suitable for microwaving, freezing, and putting in the dishwasher. Thus, it will minimize the need for multiple dishes while being a safe place to store, reheat, and eat your food from. You will also eliminate the need for plastic bags and containers. I’ll cover all the options later in the review, but the key point is you can use them in so many ways: food storage, an alternative to bowls and cups, on-the-go storage, or organizing small items around the house.
