@@my.way.gaming561 I had no problems whatsoever. The most important thing is to never close the lid when freezing. After whatever you put in the glass container freezes, you can close the lid

Perfect video! Great info given in under 5 minutes 👍🏻

Lead and cadmium levels are in the paint & decorative elements of older Pyrex & Corning products. Pre-2000’s should be avoided for consumption use, or search reliable online sites for more specific dates regarding these vintage items.

Off topic, but your skin is so beautiful and dewy!

I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm trying to get rid of all plastic as well. We know xenoestrogen is bad.

I loved your video but please be careful with the vintage Corning ware, most of it has high lead levels.

These are great ideas. I live alone and eat very little, so I always have leftovers; I wanted to freeze them, but NOT use those Ziploc bags anymore, and the beeswax wrap just doesn't work in the freezer. Thanks to your ideas and help, I know I can do it now! I also love the idea of looking on Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace for the jars; that way, we don't have to worry about the carbon footprint of shipping all that heavy glass! Thanks!

Thanks great tips very helpful

Awesome 🙏🏾

This is exactly what I needed! Thank you for the video.

I enjoyed the video, thank you for the tips.

What a great help thank you

Jennifer I am so glad I found you! I've been making the switch as well as making my own jams and pickling, but I didn't know how to freeze things in jars without the clumping. You are so smart!! Thank you for helping us out 🫂💝🌞🦚 (teal is one of the most vibrant healing colors around and I love animals so 😉😜)

Buying second hand it’s also very environmentally friendly! 😊 nice video!

Do you have any problems with freezer burn? Especially with meats?

Great video. Very helpful. Just curious if you've had any issues with freezer burn using the casserole dishes?

Thanks very much.

Sooo important what you are doing!! Muce love❤❤

This is awesome!

You are a genius! Thanks to you I finally found the method to freeze meat with cling wrap. The idea came when I saw the frozen fruit,you said to have it on a sheet. Well,I'll do the same with meat. I'll have it on a sheet,first freeze it and then store it into containers. Thank you!! You put and end to a question that was torturing me for months! I know about silicone bags but I can't afford buying anything online,I have to go with what I have.

I am going to use my old plastic containers to store non food items instead of tossing in trash.

Thanks Roda! You don't have to do everything at once...you can start a few new plastic free habits - it all makes a difference. I'm coming on my one year anniversary of quitting plastic, I'll share what I've learned....I've made some crazy mistakes and also learned a lot!

Than you for posting this :)

Mainly, that it's really hard and you have to pick the battles that will have the most impact. :-) I'm looking forward to sharing the things I've learned - what works and what doesn't.

Do you add the frozen CorningWare dish directly into your toaster oven?

I tried to freeze my chopped paprika in a glass jar. But, when I needed to cook it, thr lid was almost impossible to open instead of expanding. What might I do wrong?

I just store any leftovers in the fridge and eat them the next day. However, this is great for storing longer term.

Where'd you go????

Hi, I have been searching on how to freeze fish and chicken safely without plastic. Can anyone share on how to freeze with glass containers? From many informations I get, it needs to be airtight, so plastic is mainly used. Previously, I stored my fish in plastic boxes and stacked my fish fillets. In order to not getting them frozen into one, I used plastic sheet between each fish fillet in one container. Now I want to make a shift.

😍👍

How can I freeze the best meat? I always buy discounted meat and then I freeze them individually because I eat little because of my stomach reduction. Everything is now packed individually in a plastic bag

Cut meat down to size to fit in grocery jars. Saurkraut and pickles come in jars with wide mouths

Too bad her website is no more and she stopped adding videos 2 years ago :(

what about meat? I use Tupperware for fruit and other things but my bf uses sandwich bags for meat what would be a good alternative.

That's a really good question. I did a LOT of research on "plastic-free" meat after reading that some people purchase meat at their butcher shop without plastic. I discovered that the USDA regulates how meat is to be processed and what packaging it must be packaged in; it MUST be shipped in plastic. Each state has a department of agriculture that further regulates how meat is handled and stored before it gets to your home; I wrote several states; only a few got back to me...short story (though I intend to do a video on this) is that meat is at some point stored in plastic and butchers must use plastic gloves if you provide something other than plastic for them to put the meat in. Personally, I don't eat a lot of meat so that cuts down on freezing. When I went plastic free, I gave up meat because I couldn't buy it without plastic (and I learned that there's a high CO2 cost for meat). Sadly, I started loosing my hair (growing back now) and I thought it was because I wasn't eating any meat (turns out it wasn't) so now we eat meat about twice a month...I had to bite the bullet (or the chicken in this case). When I buy it, I eat it right away. If I have to freeze it, I freeze it in whatever packaging it came in (this is typically plastic). Since attempting to eliminate plastic over a year ago I've learn so much about the environment, health, and all the things we can actually control to be more environmentally friendly beyond just eliminating plastic. I've now settled into the fact that there are some things out of my control and "meat w/plastic" is one of them...the only thing I can do is control how much exposure I have to it...Sorry so much rambling. I hope I answered your question in a round-a-bout way.

@@quittingplastic5125 Hi! Is it possible you weren't replacing meat with another protein source or not getting enough calories? That is a common fumble that new vegetarians or vegans make.

@@quittingplastic5125 I wonder if silicone bags are any better to freeze meat in?

I tried this method, but used water just for a test and it broke the jar.

Go to 2:05 to see how to

Indian food? me likey!

Fill a jar with liquid and see what happens.
