I bought these because I originally got a bunch of round borosilicate food containers for regular use in the fridge, but could go in the freezer, too. But then, I got to not liking them because they slide around against each other and don't store efficiently due to their round shape. I don't relish the thought of one of them flying out of the freezer as I re-arrange them to add frozen veggies, etc., into the freezer. But voila, enter these souper cubes! They're much easier to squeeze into the top, unused portion of my freezer, without sledding down the tilted pizza box, and are still worth using even if only one of the sections is being used, because that only makes the remaining sections more flexible. I got the gray, but I wish a lighter gray or taupe was offered, because the dark gray is a little gothic and the darkness makes it more difficult to see the details of the food. These are also overpriced, but are really great quality nonetheless, nice and thick to make them strong, but not overly thick. I'll use these for regular things, and for carmelized onions, but, next, I'm going to get the four ounce size, to use for freezing compound butters (yay!) and also sauces and gravies --the four ounce size is just right for that, for myself. What a great thing these souper cubes really are, and if you can afford them or wait till they go on sale, I highly recommend them!!!
