Why Aluminum?
Selected by a number of organizations like Meals on Wheels for its versatility, low cost, and convenience, aluminum possesses many practical features:
Freezer-to-oven convenience
The only packaging that can withstand extreme temperature changes, aluminum can go from the freezer to the oven to the table – saving time during food preparation.
Microwaveability
It’s true – aluminum foil containers can be used in microwave ovens! In fact, foods heat more thoroughly in aluminum than in plastic and retain more of their original texture and flavor.
Transportability
Aluminum containers are leak-resistant, sturdy, stackable, and keep foods fresher than plastic or styrofoam containers.
Easy clean up
Choose easy clean-up or no clean-up. After cooking, save your aluminum containers and recycle them.
Tri-ovenability
Not only can aluminum containers be used in a microwave oven, they also stand up to conventional ovens and toaster ovens without melting, charring, or compromising the food’s original flavor.
