Anchor Hocking - Affordable and Quality Glassware

Anchor Hocking has been producing quality glassware products in the USA since 1905.  My favorite product from Anchor Hocking are the Bake 'N' Store containers because they are so versatile.  They are oven safe (up to 425 F), you can put them in the freezer, use them in the microwave, or for food storage.  I appreciate a product that can be utilized for so many different functions.  Also, if you are concerned about the safety of storing foods in plastic then Anchor Hocking's Bake 'N' Store is a wonderful product for food storage.  (You can read more about plastic toxicity and plastic chemicals from containers leached into food here: http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/magazine-archive/december-2009/food/bpa/overview/bisphenol-a-ov.htm )

Here are some pictures of the Bake 'N' Store containers:





I make my own chicken stock and use the 2 cup containers to put the stock in my freezer, this way I always have pre-measured portions of chicken stock available when I need it:
