use; much like storing baking dishes in the oven. the resident chefs think it’s ridiculous. what do you cetaceans think?

I wouldn't have space in my fridge, but I've chosen stacking storage containers & bought a desk organizer for the lids and keep them on a sliding shelf.
*I own more than in the picture that are currently in the dishwasher.

::jokingly:: after you organize it, Does it immediately go into chaos the moment you slide the drawer back?

I can't imagine having space for that.

I wouldn't do that, I need all of the space in there for food. I don't store baking pans in the oven either, but then I have enough storage space in my kitchen for both. I use the cheap plastic containers for left-overs, they stack easily in a drawer, lids are in a box with them, like files.

I have no room in my fridge for empty stuff & then you're paying to keep them cool. We put it all in our lazy susan cabinet in the corner. All the lids are standing & all the containers are stacked by size never to have to fight & find them again! I thought my wife was brilliant when she set it up!

we also have a lazy susan corner cabinet where we keep our food storage containers! but i suspect it’s haunted, because regardless of how meticulously i organize, the lids move around. isn’t packing a fridge or freezer a way to retain the cold?
