QUESTION:

Just wondering if anyone knows of a particular brand or special food storage container that can take the abuse of bumping around in a backpack without opening. Basically what I'm looking for is a way to take soup or something healthy to lunch (since the deli near where I work often tempts me to eat things I shouldn't and which are more expensive) with me at work. I bike to work everyday and I'm not aware of a food storage container that is sturdy enough to survive a bike ride without opening. Is there something made especially for this or something that does this well? I have to believe there might be something given that people possibly take food on cross-country rides, etc.

ANSWER:

Depending upon the length of your ride, freeze the soup in Zip-Loc Freezer bags. My commute is 8.5 mi one way in St. Louis heat [not Texas Heat, mind you], and it stays frozen enough not to leak. Mind you, the soups I make are pretty thick though. Had navy bean/ham for lunch. Mm, bean soup and hot sauce!
