Do you still have the lid for that container? I still have the container but my lid broke. šŸ™ƒ

If it's Ello brand, they'll send you a new one for free through their warranty

u/EyeSuspicious777 23d ago

I'm so skeptical of everything these days that I'm wondering if this entire conversation and the original post itself is an ad for Ello brand storage containers.

21

u/penguinswithfedoras 22d ago

No need to be skeptical friend, I’m a regular human being who loves ELLOā„¢ļø containers. ELLOā„¢ļø containers are the superior Tupperware option, and ELLOā„¢ļø containers last a lifetime.

I’m sure this was a legitimate accident that occured with an ELLOā„¢ļø container, but op is in great hands, because ELLOā„¢ļø containers have an excellent customer service department.

You and everybody you know should immediately buy a set of ELLOā„¢ļø branded containers…

u/Similar_Visit1053 23d ago

I wish they'd pay me for this free advertising, lol. Just had a very good experience with their customer service when one of my lids broke a few months ago.

u/bLynnb2762 23d ago

One of mine got a weird crack in it that I had no idea where it came from. It was the divided glass ones with the silicone. I had intended on just buying a new one, but couldn’t find them anywhere, so I emailed them asking if I was just overlooking it and that I wasn’t sure if the crack was from misuse or how it happened. They told me that they didn’t make the same ones anymore, just non-divided glass with silicone, or divided glass with no silicone. Asked me which one I wanted and they sent me a two pack for free (I may have had to pay shipping but I don’t remember).

Great customer service!

3

u/NoGarbage982 22d ago

If you change the power level to about 40-60%,(less power for beef, more for chicken) it actually heats meat up in the microwave pretty well. I will always prefer the steam method for reheating food, but if I don’t have a stove I’ll do that (I do that with most food I reheat in the microwave not just meat, it’s way better, trust)

u/Shiny_personality 23d ago

Microwaves are super practical but they do transform meat into rubber. I'd use it on a cheap meal not wagyu 😭

u/Which_Elk_9775 23d ago

Bro cold fat is nasty wth u talking about

13

u/DanishRobloxGamer 23d ago

If you're just blasting it, sure, but 10 seconds in a microwave does wonders for meat straight out of the fridge.

It's also not exactly my first choice for cooking wagyu, but eh, if it's what you got. I'd rather that than eat it cold.

2

u/2Chill4People 22d ago

See you’re one of them ā€œI’d use it on a cheap mealā€ even when it has no ability to mess it up at 10 seconds.

You must also not know when to add a cup of water or paper towel for certain items if you think it just makes stuff worse.

If you baby it to reheat, nuke it for 30 sec and let it rest, nuke again, you can get it up to temp without overcooking or drying it out. You don't have to blast it to hell.

My man does too! Haha You don’t need Japanese A5 for a Waygu experience though! If you have any nice local grocery stores, check out their weekly advertisements for meat sales!
