We use Glass for almost everything these days, and Stainless as well... I'm actually becoming a little obsessed with these containers, but that is for another day... *smile*
First it was the glass to replace plastic storage containers. Then it was my Tiffin, Eventually found the Glass Straws (thanks to friend for my first try at them), then Glass Water Bottles, which we were soo excited about...
And NOW... my plastic ice tray can become a storage bin for paper clips, because it is getting OUT of my freezer....The whole plastic/cancer thing, especially when frozen, always made me an unhappy camper... Finding an alternative has been very difficult though... UNTIL NOW!
I introduce you to my new, Stainless Ice Tray from "Life Without Plastic":
(still gotta figure out the whole foodsaver bag replacement, but one step at a time)
I must say, it was easier to pop out some of the ice then I thought it would be. BUT, there are a few in the center, that I haven't quite figured out an easy way to get them. And I had to fill/freeze/dump a couple times to get the yucky stuff off the blade things that didn't come out in the wash.
But otherwise, it has been a cool gadget. The Ice freezes A LOT faster, and is ready sooner, which I LOVE... especially without an ice machine in our kitchen, this little gadget will get a LOT of use!
