Ditto. I mainly send food home with our (grown) kids. One of 'em is
always on the verge of financial Armageddon and another of 'em can't
cook to save herself. I do, however, stock up on disposable containers
when they're on sale. The miserable brats keep "losing" my Tupperware
in their cupboards. About every six months or so, I would launch a
seek and recover mission in their kitchens. Decided it was easier all
the way around (and cheaper) to give 'em throw aways.
