How to stop your plastic storage containers from staining … kitchen helper
Have you ever stored leftovers in a plastic container in the fridge, to find that the container is stained - and normal washing doesn’t really remove the stain? This sometimes happens with highly-coloured dishes containing tomatoes or turmeric.
