2. Brilliant kimi!

[AsahinaKimi]

3. I know right?

[ohiosmith]

4. You'd think after all these years I would've figured that out!

[AsahinaKimi]

5. It totally is brilliant

And saves on plates. No dishes to wash. I am going to have to try it next time I order chicken Chow mien!

6. Or you could just dump it on a plate

microwave it, and it'll be good.

7. If you don't mind...

cleaning the plate and the microwave

[sakabatou]

11. Dishwasher.

I usually put a plate of the plate or use plastic wrap.

[AsahinaKimi]

13. So, now that you have seen it...

Will you try it? I want to..just for fun.

[sakabatou]

14. If I have leftovers

8. Cool! Can't wait to try that one. (Chinese food is my only vice)

[NightWatcher]

9. I prefer eating it from the carton, that way I can still drive

If I opened it up like that, I'd get it all over the ambulance.

10. My local restaurant uses syrofoam containers

But wow. I feel like a chump for never trying that when I had a box!

[AsahinaKimi]

12. I get delivery very often ..

And most of my Chinese food comes in plastic containers which I use over and over again. I like those boxes though, you can throw them out. I don't care for the Syrofoam..stuff takes millions of years to break down.

15. Agree about the styrofoam - they just make it so hard to avoid

I once tried to shift to SIGG bottles whenever I needed to grab a soda at a convenience store, but for some reason I slipped out of that habit. I need to get back into that so I don't use so many disposable cups.

As for the styrofoam, maybe I could eat at more Chinese restaurants where they have plates that can be cleaned off.

16. Won't work for me.

All the places here in Ft. Worth put the entree in a styrofoam container, and the rice by itself in the little folding container.

17. That is so cool!

Heck, I'd be happy with just one side open. Won't keep me from wearing my food, though.
