Are you anything like me? Do you have a Tupperware cupboard filled with odds and ends? Do you have containers without lids, and lids without containers?
In all honesty, I got so sick of having my Tupperware “grow legs and walk away” that I’ve filled my cupboard with the cheaper brands. And, I’ve been known to save things like butter tubs and sour cream containers. This way, I don’t care if my containers leave and never come back!
Recently, I was introduced to CoverMate Stretch-to-Fit Food Covers. Now, in addition to the fact that I can never seem to find the right lid for my storage containers, I have to confess something --- I hate plastic wrap! If you buy the cheap stuff, it doesn’t stick to anything; and, if you buy the expensive brands, they are so sticky that I have trouble getting them off my hands an onto my containers! Also, I’ve cut myself more than once on the serrated cutting surfaces on plastic wrap boxes – let me tell you, those are some nasty, painful cuts!
So, CoverMate Stretch-to-Fit Food Covers are my new best kitchen friends! They come in various sizes choices. I received a variety box, which includes 4 medium, 4 large, and 2 extra large bags (and a bonus can cover). The can cover is great if you open a can of fruit or pizza sauce and need to save some for the next day. The medium covers will fit nicely over a dinner plate (9” or smaller), a melon (for a summer picnic), drink pitchers, etc. The large are great for serving bowls, casserole dishes, cakes, pies, etc. (9-14”). If you’re having a party, then you’ll enjoy the extra large covers which will fit 14-19” items such as pizzas and large party platters and serving trays.
CoverMate covers are NOT disposable. They are totally reusable. They are also microwave and dishwasher safe. They contain no latex or BPA. If you’re interested in trying them out for yourself, CoverMate offers a free sample pack for only $3.95 shipping. Details may be found at the website.

I’d love to share!

or, just for fun, share a funny food storage story with me.
Next Monday, I’ll do a random drawing to choose a winner (U.S. residents only, please).

I would vesing these to cover the plates of food kids sometimes just don't eat. It always seems so random that one day this one is not hungry, another day that one doesn't eat even half of their food. Putting it all into tiny containers is a pain - covering the whole plate and sticking it in the fridge would be wonderful!
We use some things like this, but they don't stretch to fit, so it's often a loose cover, and they aren't as sturdy as these appear to be. I like the sturdiness ... they should last longer!

I'd love to give these a try! They also look great for transporting food to the park, to church fellowships and so forth! :)
I'd love to have these! They look like they'd work in a variety of situations, and I love that they're reusable! :-)
I'd love to try these out! Feeding a family of 6, i always seem to make too much and they would be great for leftovers! And you could use for snacks, toys, and school supplies I bet!!
I would love to try these...they look so handy!
Looks like what my MIL used about 10 years ago...maybe they got better!
