Upgrading Food Storage

If you are looking for good home countertop food storage, I would recommend this series from OXO.  The "POP" technology plus high-grade BPA-free plastic creates an airtight seal that is easy (even fun?) to open and close.  It is a real step up from my last container set from Ikea.  They're more expensive than your average jar, but I think it's worth the money: after a recent mouse incident, the saltshaker was upended, the compost Tupperware had holes in the lid, but my OXO filled with brown sugar was completely unscathed.
