    Aluminum Foil

    Pros

     Using aluminum foil to package your food helps to seal in the odor without having to open your
    fridge and be stopped dead in your tracks because of an unbearable smell. Just be sure to tightly
    pinch the foil to the sides of the container so no air can go in or come out.
     Foil wrapping is ideal for anyone who is storing food that will be reheating it in the near future.
    Since aluminum foil can withstand high temperatures, it makes this food packing material the
    best tool for the job.
     Aluminum foil is impervious to moisture, light, bacteria and all gases. Because of it's ability to
    block out bacteria and moisture especially, it helps the food last longer than if it were wrapped in
    plastic.
     The ease of packaging your food with aluminum foil is what makes it the most ideal house hold
    and food industry item. It forms easily around any shape and takes just a few seconds to complete
    the packaging process.
     Packaging your food with aluminum foil will help prevent the food from coming in contact with
    germs, as it is highly resistant to all bacterias. Because aluminum foil can be easily torn, add an
    extra layer to your packaging to insure yourself that nothing will come into contact with the food.

    Pros: Lightweight (but heavy enough to get the job done), great for delicate pastries

    Cons: If you're looking to work with cookie dough or other more substantive desserts, you may want
    something heavier still
    PLASTIC CONTAINER

    Pros

     There is a low cost associated with replacing these containers.


     Plastic is cheaper than other common storage materials, such as glass, metal and wood.
     Plastic is durable, in that you can toss plastic containers from a distance and not worry about
    them breaking.
     Similarly, if you use large plastic containers to store decorations or clothes in your home, you can
    place a few similarly weighted containers on top of each other without fear of the plastic
    container buckling.

    Cons

     If you leave plastic containers stacked with heavy items in them for a long period of time, the
    plastic will buckle and crack.
     Absorption of Flavors
     Plastic has a large impact on the environment.
     Plastic is not biodegradable, which means it is not possible for the earth to naturally absorb this
    material back into the soil.
