:D You just reminded me of years ago when I made some jellies in those kraft margarine tubs and took them on a picnic. We had them on the back shelf in the car and parked up and forgot about them! It was a hot day and when we got back to the car after our picnic we had some nice warm orange drinks waiting for us!

Ive one in the fridge for storing my cheese in. Then use the others for when i make bolognese sauce - if i dont use it all in two days stick the rest in a tub and stick it in the freezer. Spug uses his for soups/curries he makes and sticks them in the freezer. Also use them for transporting stuff to other places.

I use jam jars for storing single size servings in the freezer.
