Glass is heavy & fragile, wrapping it in a rubber material makes it hard to clean leaving places for bacteria. Acidic food does not work well with metals like aluminum along with stainless steel that leaches nickel and chromium. Plastic 1, 2, 4 & 5 kept away from heat are likely the best, but avoiding additives including stabilizers and phthalates is difficult.

I wish a company made stackable 350mL glass containers with glass lids and silicon shells and seals. I would buy 20 of them right away and recycle my Rubbermaid "Takealongs" containers that I use for freezing food.
