I guess I'll make a statement about our revenue plans vs our community activity.
1/ We didn't make the frontpage changes for any revenue-related or mainstreaming reason. We made them because (as has actually been discussed in this very subreddit quite often) the default subreddits all evolve in different ways and the community itself begins to find one or more of those subreddits more or less valuable/desirable. (I think you all know what I'm talking about; this will be the only paragraph where I talk a bit sideways, because I don't want to shit on people) Similarly, other emerging subreddits begin to show a lot of promise so in the interests of adding more fresh material, we've added them to the defaults.
1a/ There is a minor point that sometimes taking a subreddit out of the defaults and removing the pressures of the limelight can allow it to incubate and improve, but that wasn't a reason in our decisions; it's just something that occurred to me today.
2/ Our revenue plans encompass the following areas:
It is marketing, but it's not what you expect: we think that quality customer service is one of those "difficult to see, but ultimately most valuable" aspects of a company, and companies who do this don't get enough recognition. Thus, this model helps make it clear when a company provides good customer service. The marketing value to them is not that they are a reddit gold partner, but that they are seen explicitly taking good care of redditors. (as it happens, if they don't, we will drop them) Again, they don't pay us for inclusion in that program - they have to be invited, and on the basis of us thinking they have something valuable to offer [at least some subset of] redditors.
In none of these cases do we need (or want) to modify or editorialize the logged-out front page. We do modify and editorialize the front page by selecting the defaults, but we do it entirely for community-oriented reasons. We will probably continue to do so.
The truth (bland and unconspiracy that it is) is that we think if we do things for the community for community- and user- focused reasons, users will continue to be happy with us. Advertisers go where users go, and because subreddits already separate themselves from each other and advertisers can target by subreddit, there's very little fear of an ad appearing next to "objectionable" content that they didn't select. The user/community focus of reddit gold benefits and a marketplace is also pretty self-evident: if we make users happy with reddit, they will pay for reddit. There is just so much weird talk these days about financial engineering and weird business models by investment banker types that it pervades and distorts even normal peoples' expectations of how a business might be run - at reddit we are just trying to run a business in the old fashioned way: we make a thing, we try to make it as good we can for YOU, and you pay us money for it. My background is that of an engineer - I like to keep things simple.
A note about short-term vs long-term money. It turns out that you have to plan for BOTH the short-term and the long-term. If you don't eat in the short-term, you die and never make it to the long-term. If you do everything short-term, you have no long-term future. So we need to make enough money this year to pay the bills and fund next year's growth, and we also need to put into place the cornerstones of future growth at the same time. It's a balancing act.

sorry it's half gone... i meant to take a pic before starting. so the recipe:
***
cinnamon minute muffin, my way:
melt butter in microwave for one minute. you can use a coffee mug. i use a generic brand of this.
while melting the butter, i gather my other ingredients.
once the butter is melted, i add the flax first. it will swell and soften slightly from the heat. (i think this is a trick to a good minute muffin.) then put the baking powder and cinnamon on top of that.
next, add the cream (yes, i weigh it) and then the egg. finally, add the ez sweetz.
now stir, making sure to get into the corners and scraping the sides.
now into the microwave. 90 seconds in my 1200 watt microwave is perfect. 60 seconds can come out a little gooey; 120 seconds, a little dry. you'll have to play with your microwave.
***
the icing:
while your muffin is in the nuke box, grab the bowl you will be eating from and weigh your cream cheese and heavy cream into it. now add the ez sweetz and stir like hell. (if your cream cheese is particularly firm, 10 seconds in the microwave will straighten that out, but you'll have to wait for your muffin to be done.) it will look a little runny at first but it will thicken.
now move the icing to one side of the bowl with you stirring spoon and dump your muffin in. it should slide right out... i am yet to have one stick as long as i start with the butter. then spoon your icing over top and enjoy!
the stats:
*
totals:**
If using Splenda instead of ez sweetz, add ~4.5g of carbs to the total. I also usually count eggs as having 0 carbs, but it is actually ~.4g. Count it if you want, i just want everyone to feel fully informed. (As eggs are an agricultural product, nutrient macros vary from egg to egg. They actually range from .2g to .6g of carbs per large egg. That's why i do not count them... low enough to not matter.)
***
also note that i, personally, am not a big fan of cream cheese. my wife gave me this idea so i tried it and she nailed it. normally, my icing would be equal part whole milk and confectioners sugar.
once again, i am in heaven... and i still have half to eat.
edited to add alternative measurements so those without a food scale can enjoy as well.

Here you go sir
This article revolutionized my lunches for work.
The TL;DR version:
Then all you have to do is grab a bag each day and microwave it at lunchtime!
My personal favorite is salsa chicken (salsa, chicken, green peppers, and onions). A few others that I've liked a lot have been Hawaiian pork (pork, pineapple, broccoli, teriyaki sauce), orange chicken (chicken, orange sauce, broccoli or mixed vegs), and smoked sausage with beans (smoked sausage, kidney beans, onions, and bbq sauce).
Not only does this method give me such a variety that I don't get bored with lunches anymore, but I've also found this to be a really fun way to experiment with new flavor combinations!
(I don't mention carbs above because I don't eat carbs at lunch; they make me way too sleepy. I'd guess that they'd be fine being put in the bag with the other ingredients.)
Where do I start... This thing is DELICIOUS.
(Lots of links to thank the ketoers who've inspired!)
I made keto bagels last week, using /u/shenorth 's post. They were good, but after 6 days of eating dense bread, I wanted something lighter. I've made crust cheese circles in the past, and decided to try again. I had leftover dough after making 8 circles and decided to roll out the leftover dough, dump a bit of cheese and leftover taco meat (from the night before), then fold the corners in.
This is the recipe I followed, but made a few changes.
So. Let's start.
Microwave in a large bowl til melted:
Once it's gooey and well mixed when you stir with a spatula (should be same color throughout):
Divide your dough into 6 parts. (Use your spatula to rough cut while the dough is flattened in your bowl)
Sprinkle canned parm on 1 side of the parchment paper (it'll be folded like a greeting card, not a "reserved" sign)
Place 1/6 of your dough on the canned parm, then sprinkle a bit more parm on top. Fold the parchment paper over it and roll it out into an oval shape. Place your filling on 1 side of the oval (Again, it will be folded like a greeting card.) Put in less filling than you think... Leave at least a 1/2 inch empty radius around your filling.
Use the parchment paper to fold the empty half of the oval over your filling. Press the dough edges together lightly, then use a curry puff fold method to fold the edges over. Essentially, you fold over 1 corner into itself, flatten it down with your thumb, then fold over the flat bit on top of the previous fold, and keep going!
-----------------
If you're making circles, use this recipe:
Sprinkle some canned parm on your parchment paper and dump the dough on it.
Sprinkle a tiny bit of parm on the top of the dough ball as well, then cover with 2nd sheet of parchment paper.
Use your rolling pin or liquor bottle of choice to rooooollll out.
Grab a circular tupperware (the chinese take out kind works), and start punching out your circles. Re-roll out the dough. (If you find that your dough doesn't stick much to the parchment paper, you might not have to add more parm.)
Use a fork and poke holes in them so they won't bubble up.
-------------------------
Okay! So you've made your pasty/empanada/meat pie and/or circles.
Pop them into the oven for 5 minutes, then turn them over for an additional 2. If it smells like burning, take it out immediately...
------------------
Good luck!
P.s. If you're looking for a fried version, /u/looocha posted this recipe a year ago. Check it out!
I regularly cook food for myself and my wife to take with us to work.
I use 2 cup containers by Ziploc. They're water tight so I can put anything in there without worrying about spilling.
As for meal ideas, over the past several weeks, I've made the following for both of us to eat:
The point is, if you can microwave leftovers, you can put it in these 2 cup containers and microwave your left overs.
I make casseroles and freeze sections of them. My wife would take those with her for lunch, but I cautioned against doing that, mostly because it can be a LOT of food and far too many calories.
Typically, when packing my meals, I try to eat every few hours. I start with cereal, eat an apple, a granola bar, another apple and my hot lunch. It works pretty well for me.
Burritos:
I make about a dozen at a time and freeze them in foil. Due to their versatility, you can make them to fairly specific dietary requirements.
To reheat, I unwrap the foil and wrap them in a paper towel. Microwave for 3 one-minute bursts with 30 second rests. I find this helps the heat permeate the dense core without making it nuclear hot.
Chicken and Rice:
I make about 6 meals worth at a time, but you can do way more. You can get good variety by changing up the sauce for each one. Siracha, Teriaki, General Tso's, BBQ, etc... I also will toss in already frozen veggies like broccoli and carrots, one less thing to cook. Pan-fried or poached chicken breasts, and rice in these containers hold up really well.
Reheat in two one minute bursts. Stir (or shake) in between.
I would just buy a big envelope or ziploc bag like this and dump everything into it.
Are these big enough :)

750sqft should probably set you up for life, you can open a hat booth at the next MAGA rally!
Glass's microphone is not always on. It's only in listen mode when the screen is on. Your phone can be used to track your location anyway (thanks to the nice GPS+GLONASS chip inside), can probably hear everything you're saying while it's in your pocket, and can probably see roughly what you're seeing it when it's in your hand.
I hear this product makes an excellent material for a hat:

It is even cheaper than buying sleeves
You might consider getting something like the crock pot lunch warmer.
It's not for cooking food, but warming it up slowly. I have used one to heat up frozen chili or soup for lunch and works well. This sounds a lot like what you are planning to do, but you freeze cooked chili or soup in containers like this.
In case you run out
Reusable! I bought these containers at Target, where they were $2. I'll get the ones back from my husband's work on Friday, and we can wash them if they're dirty. Two of the other guys are going to have to wash their own and come get them filled at their convenience.
If you have a crock pot you can buy a digital thermostat controller to use with it and turn it into a sous vide machine. Basically you fill up the crock pot with water, the device has a little probe you put in the water, and you plug the crock pot into this device, and the device into the wall. You set the temperature and it just switches the crock pot on and off based on the temperature you set. Since crock pots heat up from all directions the temperature stays pretty consistent throughout.
I also have used Ziploc vacuum pump bags with pretty good success. They do leak out some air over the long-term so they don't work as well for freezing things for a long time (still works pretty good though) but they work perfectly fine for sous vide in my experience. Less than $100 investment for the temperature controller, the hand pump and a bunch of extra bags.

There's always opportunity in failure! Might be time to update processes so a similar issue doesn't recur. You could invest in some large plastic storage bags when you bring items in. Adding such a control may reduce your liability from certain risks like bugs, water, or other accidents.
This is something I think about a lot when packing lunches for my daughter. She can't have anything that needs to be heated, either. Here are my tips. First, get some of these: http://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Container-Divided-Rectangle-2-Count/dp/B003U6DJ90/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1345207791&sr=8-1&keywords=ziploc+divided+container They are divided and waterproof between the compartments. There are other divided containers, and some things called Bento Boxes, but these will not leak. So if you have strawberries in one of the spots, the juice won't leak onto your pretzels (for example).
I make her a trail mix, but it's a peanut-free school, so I usually use some of these things, depending on sales: almonds, raisins, M&Ms, craisins, yogurt-covered raisins, cereal. That goes into the smallest compartment.
The next-sized compartment usually has a muffin of some kind. Here are some of my favorites:
I rarely pack sandwiches, but she loves Greek yogurt, so I bought some of these http://www.amazon.com/Norpro-431-4-Piece-Silicone-Maker/dp/B0036B9KHO/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1345208411&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=norpro I either make a smoothie and freeze them in these or just put straight yogurt in them. They are usually thawed enough to eat by lunch time.

ZZL[edit: XXL sorry!] Big Bags. I found that 2 of them packing taped together at the seam makes an almost exactly proportional baggie! Was so excited to find themFor anyone looking for the most affordable vacuum sealing option, the Ziploc Vacuum Starter Kit is a handheld pump selling for under
$10$5 on Amazon. Works great and the replacement bags are as cheap and easy to find on Amazon (quart is sandwich baggy sized, perfect for panties. gallon is great for shirts and large items).r/sousvide might be a good place to crosspost this, but before pursuing the wrap approach, you'll probably want to be very certain that you are using the correct type of wrap. This is the correct type according to chefsteps, and they tend to know what they are talking about
I Just moved from NH to CA like last month the drive is awesome because its basically the same highway the whole time. I just drove packed all my clothes in zip loc big bags don't even fuck with a suit case just lay these bad boys down somewhere. I drove so I had to leave a lot behind. If you drive get AAA the discount in hotels will pay for your membership.

Target used to have them and possibly still do.
I really need to write up a blog post about this, but I have a super easy way to store hops vacuum sealed. This short of it is:
Put the hops in the jar, attach the lid and jar sealer, hold the hand pump over the sealer hole, and pump for about 15 seconds. The jar should now have an air-tight seal, just toss it in the freezer and enjoy fresh hops year 'round. 1 quart holds ~0.5 lbs of pellet hops.
The benefit of this method is that you don't have to shell out ~$100+ for a FoodSaver + attachments. If you already have mason jars you'll only need the hand pump and attachment, which will run you ~$15.
I use this combo to make vacuum sealed jars.

> You do realize that plastic is not only made from oil, most forms of plastic are carginogenic, there is an entire labeling system that tells whether or not plastic is safe to be used for food storage or not, is safe to hold liquids or not, is safe to be microwavable or not, and many other things?
Lots of different kinds of medicines are also made from oil. Crude oil as a feedstock means nothing in this context. It simply is the source from which the monomers are derived from. Go find out for yourself what fractional distillation is. Different grades of fractions are used for different applications as well; analytical grade hexane will be as pure as you can get it to be, as opposed to something like technical grade.
The carcinogens associated with plastics are more often than not the plasticisers used in managing the physical properties of these materials. Carcinogenic behaviour of these plasticisers is only in the context of chronic exposure (for commonly used ones) to significant amounts. Beyond that, significant absorption through skin is highly improbable.

Okay, I'm going to try and keep it manageable.
If you live in an apartment, you need to tell the super if only because you risk them going into other places and reinfesting.
There are kits you can buy, though just be sure anything you buy also has a sprayer of some kind if it's mixed
If a kit doesn't have encasements you should order those on amazon.
That said, here are some steps:
Wash and machine dry everything you own, and put them in these or these. Don't be stingy on this, buy 2-3 of them. Make outfits for work and home and organize them bag by bag. Lets call this 25 dollars.
Do this with your linens, pillow cases, and pillows. If your bedsheets are not light colored and plain, then buy some light colored plain ones. White is good, a little off white is best as nymphs can appear white if they haven't eaten, eggs too. Wash your linens every 4 days or so.
Buy mattress encasements for your bed AND your box spring. Measure both to make sure you don't buy one that's too big, the snugger the fit the better. Do not go too cheap on this, look at the reviews. A good one will have not only a zipper but a folding flap to secure it. Lets call this 60 bucks. Once on, never remove the encasement without a PCO telling you to. Do not try to make your own, it never works out well. Important note, do NOT under any circumstance have any kind of bed skirt or blanket that's so large it touches the floor easily. You're going to want to make it so the bugs have to crawl up the legs so they die on the cimexa.
If you do not have an iron/steel bed frame, I recommend getting the cheapest one you can find.
Clean everything off the floor, make sure no furniture is touching any other furniture or the wall. If you can't do that, you need to lose some stuff. Believe me it's worth it.
Vacuum daily if you can, and immediately toss out whatever you vacuum up in whatever trash is outside. Do not keep it inside. I wouldn't recommend vacuuming less than every other day. Vacuum early in the morning if at all possible.
Buy interceptors. These babies are pricey unfortunately. but a 12 pack should be good for a bed and something else. That's about 40. Make sure whatever bed post you have will fit in them, they're not the widest.
Buy two cans of bedlam plus. Spray it along each joint and crevice in all the furniture after you've emptied it out. Do not use over the counter sprays, they're almost always things bed bugs are already resistant to.
Buy two bottles of Cimexa and a bellows. Apply the cimexa on the perimeter of every piece of furniture that is on the floor as well as along the wall of the room. Unscrew every outlet and switch cover and put it there as well. Don't go overboard, less is more. This will be about 40 total for the set. I recommend spraying the legs of your chairs. Make sure to cover your face while you're doing this. Cimexa will kill them if they crawl over it, however if it's clumped up in big piles they'll walk around it because they don't like it.
Do NOT switch where you sleep. They'll follow you and spread to other parts of where you live. You're live bait. It sucks, but having them come to where you're sleeping is the best way to kill them. You want them feeling safe and secure as they walk over the poisons and cimexa you've laid out.
You'll be living out of bags for a long long time, so get used to it. I recommend scheduling something you enjoy every week to keep your sanity and have something to look forward to.
Whatever you do, do NOT buy a bed bug bomb. It will scatter them and make them harder to clear.
Nothing goes on the bed unless it's sterile, and nothing leaves the bed without being washed and dried ASAP.
These are the same containers used for takeout. I use these all the time for mise en place and storage. Save some money and don't throw them out with your take out!
You can also buy them in bulk from places like Amazon

Are your friend.
Going high on prices.
10-15$ jars
10-15$ for a tub
5-15$ vermiculite
10$ perlite
13-25$ for a syringe or 5 for 35. recommend these guys.
8$ for rice flour
30-100$ for a pc. (don't have to have this but it's good)
Somewhere between 60 and 120 dollars without the pc and sometimes you can find a pc at a garage sale for cheap or borrow your moms.
You can make your own brf with a coffee grinder, that would add 20ish. You can use these 1 pint Ziploc with screw on lids instead of jars but I would only use these if pc'ing, and make sure to melt inoc holes before pc'ing.
This. Especially with a few of those gladware containers I saw someone mention in a thread on here recently.

In one country, a woman can accuse a man of rape with no evidence, and watch him get proverbially lynched.
In another, a woman can actually get raped, have loads of evidence, and then get literally lynched for "adultery".
These are both pretty severe problems, but if you think that the countries that spawned them are equal on the "women's rights" scale, please get your brain checked.

Personally, I wouldn't store your mattress or anything upholstered that you can't seal off like that... I've heard that it's best to avoid, for example, upholstered furniture for sale on Craigslist that is pictured in or says that it has been in a store unit because the risk of bedbugs is high.
Reflectix is this shiny insulation stuff (similar to a car sun visor) you can get at hardware stores. It's really easy to work with and makes great insulated cozys or bags for dehydrated meals.
Here's a quick tutorial on how to make them, again it's pretty straightforward - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FTln2_5Pgo
This is reflectix, if you are decently crafty it's pretty straight forward to make a little thing to put a tupperware in to keep it warm -

and Here is the type of tupperware I was mentioning, I've used them as a bowl on many trips and they have always worked great (they have 2 different sizes) - https://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Twist-Containers-Small-Lids/dp/B003UEGZCA/ref=sr_1_2_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1496262262&sr=8-2
Leftover management is a huge challenge for me, so I did two things to make it easier. First, I use ONLY the 2 and 4 cup Ziploc Twist N' Lock containers. The lids are interchangeable, completely leakproof, and cheap enough that I don't care if some disappear. They also stack nicely in the fridge and cabinet, and are fine in the freezer, microwave, and dishwasher.
Second, every new container gets one of these labels made by Label Once. I used to use tape but it was a hassle. These are dishwasher proof, easy to write on and erase, and cheap. One set is plenty for almost everyone.
My suggestion is the same as what I took in 2015 and what I will be bringing to rayado this summer: 2c Tupperware container.
My husband is the same and buying something like this was totally worth it: Ziploc Vacuum Starter Kit, 3-Quart Bags, 1-Pump https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003UEMFUG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_XP3yCbM2GC72V.
Unfortunately Ziploc doesn't really make the bags anymore but the pump works with any vacuum bag that has that hole/port (I know we use FoodSaver brand). Keeps the cheese mold free for much, much longer and isn't too expensive.
These Zip-loc vacuum bags are another way to get air tight storage without the large initial investment of the Foodsaver. The bags can leak though, if too much product is stored in them or if they get a pinhole leak somewhere. I'm using these until I can justify buying a foodsaver myself :)
Absolutely. We decided to save counter space and go with one of these. Fits in a drawer! We just buy the "off brand" zipper storage bags that have a "port" for a hand pump. Great buy for us!
This. But, if you need to go with a cheaper route to start, you could try one of the hand-pump sealers.
You can also buy sous vide vacuum bags that use a pump to withdraw the air. Just stop when the gravy gets to the top. Here's one
I wanted a sous vide setup but I wanted to keep it as close to $100 as possible. My "kit" arrived from Amazon last night:

Yes! You can often get them for free from hotels and airlines if you ask. Quality varies a lot, especially toothbrushes. They sometimes have a nice container, though, so you can always add your own stuff or replace the stuff that's sub-par.
Mine started out as a first aid kit that I added some toiletries to, but it's the same idea.
Also excellent sundries to keep handy at work : earplugs, nail clippers, buttons, thread, needle, thimble, $20, lens wipe cloth, Snickers bar, cheap-ass phone. If you have meds, keep some extras in some little pill baggies.
I did this on my last trip and it worked better than anything else I've tried in the past. These little pill bags were surprisingly strong and sealed well, and they took up almost no space. Absolutely recommend.
Similar in weight to a twist lock tupperware; my 2 cup twist lock "cup/bowl", lid and cozy sit at 1.94oz. I use mine for coffee, to rehydrate meals in or to soak food in. Having a screw top lid is awesome and my toaks 750 pot will nest inside the cup (without the lid on, i just put the lid on top of the pot).
These are very cheap and easy to find - click here
Keeps my coffee or food nice and hot!
For the range, I just use these
Maybe something like these vinyl bags with zipper sliders. Not sure if food grade and probably heavier than ziplock bags, but reusable.
In terms of a container you can store food and cook with, some hikers like pots like this Vargo BOT bottle pot that has a screw on lid. Maybe add hot or cold water to a plastic container with a screw on lid like this one from ziplock and let it soak all day.
This is my favorite eating container, with DIY reflectix cozy.
People love the Glade mini rounds too, I guess.
mini-rounds
I like to keep a small supply of disposable plastic containers (like 4 oz. Gladware bowls) for storage in games with bits per player, i.e. Ticket to Ride. All trains of one color, for example, go into a bowl, so setup is as easy as give each person a bowl. Then the pieces stay organized and are already in a container for quick setup. In the cases where a bowl like that won't fit in the box (Power Grid comes to mind), you can store silicone cupcake liners in the box to put pieces in.
Also, for anyone new to board gaming, if you seem to have more plastic baggies than you need that come with a game, keep the extras somewhere. Never know when you'll need a few extras.
Ziplock bags, as others have stated. Once I have the samples, I tend to press them into Glad disposable storage containers for loading the brush.

I don't buy thin foil because I do a lot of camping and don't want things to open up and ruin my food on the campfire. But it is just Reynolds Foil, 250' and not even heavy duty. If I bought this double pack on sale from Amazon here it would have only been $12 each.
> Yes. Because anyone who opposes this likely is a Republican troll/shill or paid by the Koch brothers--especially in the comments on web articles. If you've spent any time on this subreddit, you'd know they have corporate PR firms here doing just that: a flood of comments appear on a particular issue, all at about the same time, all saying the same talking points.
I think you need to stock up on this.
>Hmm...funny how that's happening here right now, eh? There were no opposing comments until about 2 hours post-submission.
What does that have to do with anything?
>This amendment only hurts people like the Koch brothers. It's been worded in a way to make sure it doesn't affect many others, and focuses not on speech but permitting the regulation of how money is spent in our elections.
Yeah, you haven't done a bit of research on this. Read the ACLU article, they explain it pretty well. But, I'm sure you will just claim they are funded by the Koch brothers and a shill organization now, right?
>Republicans and Koch-backed individuals are attempting to make this about anyone but them in a desperate, last-ditch effort to cloud reality and cover up the truth.
No, it couldn't have anything to do with invalidating the first amendment.
There are 132 rubber bands in your car.
You can use this foil to make a core to start a rubber band ball.
Speaking of your link (ha!), get a container of wet wipes and some spray deodorant for your self and the clothing bag. If you have a place where they could hang and dry it would be ideal, since otherwise you'll have to put on damp clothing for the ride home. If you have a bike cage at work, perhaps hanging them off a hanger from your wheel or handlebars.
Otherwise, if you have no choice but to place them in a sealed bag, Fred Meyers has enormous ziploc bags in their home storage department. You probably want L or XL, XXL can fit a King sized duvet; I think FM only carries L and XXL. BTW, they're also good for an inner just-in-case liner for any electronics you're carrying; I carry one on me when I'm on vacation in order to save anything that can't get wet in case I'm stuck outdoors in a monsoon.
Edit: This is what you're looking for. They're not exaggerating in the box art, they really are that big.
I keep a running list of current WIP's with notes to myself so I don't forget things as I switch between them. This helps when I can't decide which one to work on, I can kind of choose the "easiest" one based on my notes.
I limit myself when I have too many WIPs, and I don't start any new projects until I finish at least one WIP, which gives you the inspiration to get going!
As for organization, I keep everything for a project in large ziploc bags.
Hope this helps!
Anything super perishable and that can be frozen, can be stored with dry ice. If you use a smaller cooler, and rarely open it, it will keep a good long time, frozen solid. We had frozen bacon in a cooler last year that stayed frozen until at least thursday with dry ice. No real special handling other than not opening that cooler.
Most things can just be stored in a cooler with ice. Maintain the ice, keep it stocked up, and you'll be fine. Do not let food items get wet, keep them in zip lock bags. Keeping your ice in large zip locks is a good idea too, as it can be used as potable water when it melts. Ice melt in a cooler is nasty stuff.
I don't see why you couldn't wash and dry quinoa. I have no experience there, but a good washing and some time in an oven should get it bone dry. Bag it and keep it cool.
Veggies will be fine. Try to wash them before hand, put into ziplocks and keep cool. Onions and tomatoes wouldn't need to be kept on ice, just kept out of the sun and kept cool. Put on ice if really needed. Cucumbers should be fine for the week in a cooler. Lettuce will be fine as well. Store unlike veggies in separate containers, as they ripen at different rates.
Really you should be fine, if you have good cooler management. Keep them off the ground and in the shade. You can wrap them in reflectix as well, this will add a bit of insulation to them. Make sure they close well, don't leave open or cracked. Keep frequently opened coolers (drinks, stuff like that) separate from storage coolers.
10 gallon bags

I'd get a couple of these and store the clothes you don't currently fit into out of the way for now. I think you're right that having them take up space in your closet and seeing them knowing you can't wear them right now is a downer and really affects the whole 'joy' concept of konmari. However, I think you have a very valid reason to keep those items.
We use this storage system we got in the children's section at Ikea. (I tried to find a picture of it but their website sucks). It is a combo of shelves and bins so it was great to grow with as we have reconfigured it multiple times.
For larger, awkwardly shaped toys - I really love these large and [x-large ziplock bags] (http://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Double-Zipper-X-Large-4-Count/dp/B003U6A3EY). For example, I will put an entire race track set in one or my kids got this indoor golf set that had a massive number of pieces that were all really long. They take up less room than bins and I can just throw them on top of each other. I just them put them in their closets and they can grab them when they want.
It sounds like you've made the right decision, I thought I'd make a couple of suggestions.
While a bit pricey, I highly recommend getting a bug oven so worth it. Generally marketed for bedbugs, they kill all bugs and the peace of mind is tremendous. Buy a bunch of jumbo Ziploc bags you place your clothes, books, bedding, whatever, in the bags then into the bug oven. After when removing your stuff you'll see the dead critters and even dead critter eggs. Pesticide free and it works. I've used it when I saw a spider on my full length silk curtains, I wouldn't have been able to sleep otherwise, after I pulled the curtains out there were 3 dead spiders and countless fried spider eggs, I was so freaked out but also thrilled at the same time! You have no idea!
You may also want to look into these strips if you're ok with going a pesticide route. These have no odor and no obvious chemical outgassing but make no mistake, they are a pesticide. These are use in food silos so they're not scary chemicals but if you chose to use them I would do it when you're out of town, hang them around the apartment and in your car and if possible then open windows and sleep elsewhere for a night after you take them away. You may want to see your Dr for a rx of permethrin cream just to have at home so you're not left scratching in the middle of the night, these critters are resilient and you may end up reinfected somehow.
All of these things may seem extreme and maybe they are. I'd rather spend the money and know I have a game plan that provides peace of mind. I have 4 college age sons, they bring friends home, go camping, sleep at random girls houses and dorm rooms, the bug over is big enough that I can toss their suitcase or overnight bag, backpack and pillows in and we all sleep better knowing I won't have to fire bomb. Cause you know. Spiders.
Ziploc makes large zip top bags for clothes/blanket storage - that’s what I used for my sons blanket.

I use one of these two cup ziplock containers. I just dump my dry food in, then either cold or hot water however I happen to be re-hydrating at the time. When you're done put some water in and put the lid on and give it a shake, then disperse the gray water. (I drink it) You may have flavors transferring over meal to meal depending on what you eat. A tiny bit of camp soap and warm warm water might clean it out better. I don't use camp soap so I couldn't say for sure.
To add to what others have said, not sure if you can find these [ziploc steam bags] (https://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Steam-Cooking-Bags-Medium/dp/B003UEKBKC/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1487089898&sr=8-1&keywords=ziploc+steam+bags) but they've been a saving grace when I travel. There's a cooking time chart on the bag for proteins/veggies that you can steam up. I've done fish with different herbs and lemon juice plus potatoes and veggies just fine with these. You can also get those little individual microwave Minute rice bowls too.
Highly recommend getting them through amazon subscribe and save, it is usually a hit or miss at the grocery store. Think I pay around $8 for a 3 pack.
A cheap hand vacuum sealer probably works fine, and definitely better than the authors suggestion. I use this to bag up my hops and things. Extra bags are not much more expensive either.
Travel Compression Tool. No batteries needed.
I'm using this kind of hand pump + ziploc bag

These are basically ziploc freezer bags, which can handle extreme temps. My understanding is normal ziploc bags cannot handle the higher temps for cooking.
Looking at the clamp sealer, I think those are just pricier, less flexible with cooking methods, and not needed since sous vide cooking doesn't reall require a perfect air tight seal.
Ziploc Vacuum Starter Kit, 3-Quart Bags, 1-Pump https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003UEMFUG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_tVGIBb65QDBXC
There's a ton of them, I searched vacuum storage hand pump.
I'm not finding the ones I used to see that took the wine saver style valve, but maybe they were shitty and bad products got weeded out.
Personally, if it's within the budget, I'd rather put the money into an inexpensive vacuum sealer. I had a Ziploc brand manual vacuum pump:
Ziploc vacuum kit
The pump worked nicely, but the bags would gradually leak and lose their vacuum, leading to freezer burn.
I got a $40 vacuum sealer (Crenova VS-1) when I got my Anova, and I've been very happy with it. And (2) 50-foot rolls of 11" vacuum bag material for $18 on Amazon has made it pretty affordable to use. Almost certainly cheaper per-bag than the Ziploc vacuum bags, and it works better. Reliable seals, and no leaks.
Don't underestimate your freezer so you can buy the ingredients you want. It took me years to embrace this while cooking for 2. Need heavy cream for a recipe but feel like it's wasteful? Go ahead and buy it, you can freeze the leftover as ice cubes and put them in a bag when frozen. Flash freezing items like that (or cut up bell pepper for example) is helpful. Also, try to vacuum seal your bags using a straw or [something like this] (http://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Vacuum-Starter-3-Quart-1-Pump/dp/B003UEMFUG) to get the most freezer life out of items.

You want to get the wide mouth jar sealer so you can get the greens out of the jar. I think I got vacuum pump thing at Walmart and it was just the pump bc I didn't spend that much on it, but it's still one of the cheaper ones on Amazon and it's rly good quality.
That's when you have to use a vacuum seal bag. The vacuum bags are thicker, usually between 3 and 5 mm and the plastic withstands a higher temperature than zip locks. I've had bags fail on me a few times now and I can't tell you how much it sucks. Sous vide cooking isn't instant gratification so it doubly sucks when I bag rips after waiting hours. I'll use zip locks when I'm making boneless chicken breast or burger patty's that cook in 1 hour but for anything that cooks over night or is an expensive cut of meat I use a vacuum bag. For someone starting out and you don't want to drop 80 bucks on vacuum sealer you can look into one of these 5 dollar zip loc kit. It uses a hand pump and special high grade bags. It's cheap to get started but the bags can get expensive.

I would freeze them. And quickly, peaches go from perfect to icky before you will realize it. See if you can find one of these freezer storage kits, should be at a grocery or Target/Walmart. Take a look at this guide for freezing methods. This is an easy way to make them last so you can pull them out later for muffins, pancakes, smoothies, chutney, etc.
Not a damn thing new with this...

I purged my mountain of supermarket deli meat containers... (Oscar, Hillshire, etc) Every brand's lid is just a little bit differently sized and I was about to lose my damned mind!!
Now I use Mason jars, plus the 16oz & 32oz Deli Containers that you can buy online in bulk - A few restaurants here use them for your leftovers, and it's nice being able to add them into the collective pile without worrying over Yet Another Kind Of Lid.

These containers, between 8, 16 and 32 ounce sizes is what we used all the time in the kitchen to store basically anything. A home cook will probably not need the big size as frequently unless prepping for a big family.

There are some that are a bit cheaper, but aren't as durable and don't flex well when frozen. I think it's worth it to get the ones that say they are freezer safe.
I'm using Ziploc extra small square containers. I was incubating at relatively low temperatures (not entirely on purpose, lol), which may have helped select for the most aggressive growth. I also made a point to transfer a tiny amount of mycelium the first time. Mostly to avoid the contaminants that grew from the spore syringe, but it helps make use of limited space. If all else fails, see if rhizomorphs try to grow up the side of the container after the whole surface is taken over.

The potassium is what you don't want to overdo, and you might get too much with a large batch as the powders will settle out differently.
I bought little ziploc-type bags (called Pill Bags) designed to hold daily medications or vitamins. They even have a place to write on.

I prep several at a time, then cut off the corner so I can funnel it into my bottle. I personally put the full recipe, modified to 1/4 teaspoon potassium chloride, in 1 liter of water and then sip it, with as much plain water / seltzer as I want. (Higher potassium gives me tingles in my hands, but that's just me)
I do like the idea of a pill box as well, as mentioned by another user!

As an interesting side note to this. I went to go get plastic containers with screw on lids
For those that don't want to click the link, it's 3 x 16oz containers (~475ml) for $6.50
Or 48oz of space for $6.50
A 12 x 16oz box of mason jars is $11.50
Or 192oz of space for $11.50
192 oz of plastic storage space would cost $26.
So glass and steel is somehow less than half the price of plastic, which I did not expect at all.
The jars also have replacement lids and seals you can buy, to hell with you plastic!
In the u.s. people use a lot of different things. Some people like the flimsy little bottles, some people like harder sided gatorade bottles, some just use coca cola bottles!
As for a cold soaking container - do you have access to these? https://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Twist-Loc-Containers-Lids/dp/B000LNY1D8
They don't leak and are 16 oz. The talenti jars are 16 oz as well.
I've been using these lately, cheap, seals tight, no odor once the lid screws on. You can find them in almost any grocery store, Target, etc.

just cut a hole the size of your speedlite in the blue top, and then cover the rest of the top with aluminum foil, and place the assembled container on your speedlite upside down.

I also do this! Cheap and tastes good.
I splurged a little more and got smaller tupperware, so when I make the jello I pour it into smaller containers. That way once I seal the container, it doesn't get exposed to anything outside of the container until I'm ready to eat. I usually only make a packet at a time and don't ever keep it past a week.
I use these two containers: one, two.

Agar agar powder. [US](https://www.amazon.com/Telephone-Product-Thailand-Powder-Ounce/dp/B01KMHY2OU/) [Europe](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Special-Ingredients-Premium-Gelatine-European/dp/B00EZMPMNE)
Always start with agar! And don't throw old fully colonized plates out. Some contaminants (e.g. mycogone, AKA wet bubble disease will only show up after full colonization (white blobs oozing yellow/orange fluid). and that one (mycogone) will fck up your grow hard, been there done that...
Light malt extract. [US](https://www.amazon.com/Organic-Light-Dried-Malt-Extract/dp/B007XYGBXQ/) [Europe](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Balliihoo-Light-Spraymalt-1Kg-Bag/dp/B0153BASSY/)
Containers for no pour agar (Pasty Plates). [US](https://www.amazon.com/Glad-Food-Storage-Containers-Round/dp/B000WGBMMM/) [Europe](https://www.flaschenbauer.de/einmachglaeser/sturzglaeser/sturzglas-225-ml-to-82) (maybe use Google translate on that site). Also if you are in North America there are Glad mini rounds, they are used in the original Pasty Plate tek. They also have [430ml jars](https://www.flaschenbauer.de/einmachglaeser/sturzglaeser/sturzglas-430-ml-to-82) suitable as substrate containers
A pressure cooker. Good ones are a b**ch to find in Europe. I wouldn't buy [that one](https://www.ebay.de/itm/Pressure-cooker-17L-Stainless-steel-Made-In-Turkey-Largest-Size/133128864948) or similar constructed ones, they are complete s**t, build up next to no pressure and need ungodly amounts of water. I have two of them, but had to do some haphazard MacGyveresqe hacking to get them to sterilize properly, I'll bring that up later.
I also have a Fagor Alu 22 (22 liters, fits eleven quart bottles), but I think that model went out of production in 2017 without a replacement. IMHO the only sane option in Europe right now, would be to order a Presto from the US, they're ~80€ + 40€ shipping, so not that bad. [Presto 23 quart PC](https://www.amazon.com/Presto-Aluminum-23-Quart-Pressure-Canner/dp/B073NCFL2L/)
Also on US websites like shroomery, you'll always read something like "sterilize 90min @ 15 psi". Pressure cookers in Europe usually have no gauges and only go to 50-70 kPa (~7-10 psi). It isn't as bad as it sounds, since sterilization time isn't linear with pressure/temperature. I've found I can get away with 120 min sterilization time for grains, 75 min for PF sub and 30 min for agar.

If you choose the wrong wifi choice, bad things will happen so you're right to be concerned. In this case you want to go with one big wifi point and then you want to remove the antennas and manually lower the transmit power in the firmware.
Beyond that, my suggestion is to buy RF blocking/reflecting materials. Use these materials to construct a hat to block the government death rays/radiation. make sure you do a good job and don't miss any areas you don't want the death rays going underneath and affecting your brain.

i have a separate DATSURA gym bag i carry my gear in
I also bring a long a Large ZIPLOC Bag for wet gear.
I've been on the same search but they seem to go in sizes from just a bit too small to 'I can hold five rolls'.
I ended up getting these large bags
And a few of these reusable desiccant blocks
Check out Eagle Creek.
Alternatively, put your shirts in a large Ziploc bag with a piece of cardboard and some air. The cardboard keeps the shape while the air prevents the contents from getting crushed.
Alternatively, you can get a case of 100 shirt boxes for $44.
When I was in Paris a few years ago, I remember that food and drinks could get pretty expensive. Sit-down restaurants cost at least $20 per dish and drinks were another $10. You can usually get pretty cheap meals from grab-and-go places, though. I'm sure this is the same for the other cities.
I recommend buying a travel book, like "Let's Go." I like this travel guide because it caters to younger people traveling on a budget. For every city, it lists cheap options for hostels, restaurants, and clubs/bars.
Make sure you're aware of the tipping policies for restaurants, and also know what is included with your meal. For example, I think tip is included in France and the tap water is free. The opposite is true in Germany, though.
I recommend getting a traveling backpack for your trip, instead of a suitcase. Backpacks are easier to transport, especially if you'll be getting on and off trains. REI has several good options. For me, a 40L pack was sufficient for a 2-week trip.
Since you'll be traveling for a couple weeks, I recommend getting some large Ziploc bags for your clothes. You can squeeze the air out of these bags and significantly compress the volume of your clothes. I used these for the first time this past summer, and they were great. They enabled me to bring a lot more clothes :)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003U6A3C6
My overall recommendation would be to try and not worry too much about money while you're in Europe. You're young and you'll work the rest of your life to make money :)
I would recommend getting a few of these 5 Gallon Water Coolers which you can fill up for pretty cheap at any local supermarket before getting out to the playa. When you buy ice for your food/drink cooler have these 10 gallon ziploc bags ready to pour the ice into. Once it melts and your ready to buy more you can pour that 10 gallon ziplock bag into one of these and bam! ice cold water, also reducing the amount of water you need to carry in - which means WAY less plastic water jugs.
I wrapped mine in shirts and socks and put that all inside one of these. I had one bottle leak a bit so had to wash a shirt at my destination.
when i moved from Hawaii back to Tennessee i put all of my larger set in These fully assembled then put them in plastic storage bins. every thing made it across the pacific and most of North America in (mostly)one piece
Maybe you should just start buying larger ziploc bags. https://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Double-Zipper-X-Large-4-Count/dp/B003U6A3EY
Here is a crazy idea. Not sure if it would work, but why not try it out. Perhaps the local walmart would have them too.
I use these. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003U6A3EY?pc_redir=1410840103&robot_redir=1
I donated the ones that had zero sentimental value. Then a friend got pregnant so I lent her the clothes I liked and wanted to save for a future child. Then the ones that I absolutely couldn't risk losing, I have packed at home in gallon Ziploc bags.
For us, space is more of an issue than money for new clothes, so the ratio probably went 75% donated, 20% lent out, and 5% saved for me to cry over when my boy goes off to college someday.
Ziploc also makes these super giant storage bags that I keep my maternity clothes in, if you wanted to save most or all of them, you could throw them in one and squish all the air out.
Here is one thing I just tried that might save some space (and cleaning). I fermented directly in the kettle rather than in a fermenter.
http://imgur.com/8DnVA9V
I wrapped the kettle in a garbage bag, and then did this trick to get an airlock on top.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWeRIFwsEpk
Unfortunately, the garbage bag ripped a tiny bit, so it wasn't airtight. I'll bottle today, but after 13 days in the "kettle", the sample was tasty. The recipe is a single hopped Cascade American Pale Ale. It tasted pretty juicy, no stale/cardboard kind of flavors that you'd suspect from oxidation.
Next time I'll try to use this as the airtight bag, hopefully it won't rip.

Item in my add on list
Patrick Kane is our hero.
These are from my kitchen list i'd use them to store Lego heads. i find that i am frequently asking my kids "why doesn't this guy have a head?!" "where are all the heads?!"
It probably takes up half of my freezer, maybe more. I use these, portioned out to lunch sizes. It's the perfect size. These are $2.49/3 pack at Target, and they are pretty durable unless you drop them while they're frozen and full - they crack. They can probably be found cheaper but I was happy enough at that price. The screw on lids are key. Tupperware style lids will lose suction and seal, at least they did with me.
I was in the same boat. Packing my lunch and bringing it to work was a hard routine to start but now it is second nature to me. Make twice as much dinner and bring the rest for lunch. My daily routine now is gym for an hour and eat when I get back to my desk. No one at work has ever cared.
Also, a small lunch bag and these Ziploc containers are money.
My local grocery store carries them next to the regular Ziploc bags. Otherwise you can get them from Amazon.
One of these+ some beaten eggs and a handful of spinach. when I first made it, it came out like a brick. Microwaved it for 3 solid minutes
So here's the pro strat on making it less brick like: microwave for 1:30. then 45 sec. then 25-30 sec intervals after that depending on how runny the eggs are.
1: You can do quite a bit with a microwave than just heat water and reheat leftovers. I'm a huge fan of the microwave rice cookers, and steamer bags.
However, if you really want to do some non-microwave cooking, look into an induction hotplate, rather than a regular one. Much safer for small environments, since it only heats up the pan, and not the burner.
At last resort, if your campus has a chemistry department, you can always try sweet talking your way into some after-hours time to use the bunsen burners...

Freeze...your veggies? You mean freeze your own instead of buying them? I would think so, but that's more a food-prep question than a fitness question, not my specialty.
I wouldn't call myself a cook by any means. Give me a stove, pan, and I'll show you some burnt food ;) I got in to sous vide cooking to take the guess work out cooking. It was one of the best decisions I've made this year. I can cook steak to a perfect 134 degree medium rare steak through and through, it's amazing. Chicken also a favorite of mine too, it comes out so tender and juicy and it just falls apart on your fork.
If anyone's interested in a diy setup on the cheap just buy [ziploc vacuum pump kit]{http://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Vacuum-Starter-3-Quart-1-Pump/dp/B003UEMFUG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1370916055&sr=8-1&keywords=ziploc+vacuum+pump} for 5 bucks. Then get any old thermos ice chest, they work amazing at holding in heat. Just fill the thermos to the desired temp (140 med) water, then check it every 10 minutes or so and add hot water if needed. After 1 hour of cooking you'll have an amazingly tender perfectly cooked steak. Also it doesn't hurt to smoke while your waiting for it cook :)
google around there's a bunch of DIY guides and they'll list cooking time and temps.
I use this for sous-vide. The bags are reusable.
For $5 you can get a hand pump and some special bags made by Zip-lock. I use these all the time, but note that the bags are slightly more expensive than standard ones (there's a small one-way valve on them). But result is less air in the bag so less floating, and never really need a powered vacuum though it is still nice for giant cooks like pork shoulder.
You're welcome :-)
My Foodsaver vac sealer was $80ish at Walmart a couple years ago... I've definitely gotten my money's worth out of it, BUT had I known about this I totally would have gotten it instead. If you do decide to go with the table-top model, I highly recommend Foodsaver over Ziploc (returned 2 faulty Ziploc ones before biting the bullet and spending a bit more on the Foodsaver), BUT use the Ziploc sealing material (the Foodsaver material is hard to cut).
You can buy a separate vacuum sealer gizmo (an extra $100 or so, plus bags). This can also be used to improve food preservation and storage.
But Kenji on serious eats has described a method involving dipping a ziploc in water before sealing it shut, so the water pushes the air out, and then eventually said to just use the new product ziploc put out. That's hardly more than the cost of a regular ziploc bag.
Ziploc makes vacuum seal bags with hand pumps! They're what I use. They're great.

I find they do lose the seal, but very slowly and has only been a problem with storage of food, not sous vide.
If you're on a really tight budget, I bought this from Walmart and it hasnt let me down yet.

this with the gallon sized bags. they loose their seal after about 30 minutes so you have to make modifications.
pulling the air out and then taping over the vacuum port with clear packing tape lets them keep a pretty good hold.

Also for the hops, if you aren't going to buy a food saver, these are cheap enough that they are worth it. It will really be better to purge the air from the hops bags. Probably the grains too, so you don't get that weird ice crystal shit going on, and end up with soggy defrosted gross grains.

Just pretend like the meat is your tablet or smartphone. Having a dedicated device for bath time reading reduces bag waste, saving you money and helping the environment.
I use the zip lock freezer ones that you can suck the air out of. But you have to fold and rubber band it so the zipper and the hole you suck the air out of doesn't have a chance to leak.
So it's take a ounce or so of hop pellets put them in the zip lock bag. Seal. Pump the air out. Fold towards the bottom of the bag to seal off the zip. Fold over again to seal off the hole. Then fold the loose bag from the side and then rubber band the bag to keep the folds. This works pretty well.

Somebody pointed out a cheap/nice solution to me that seems to keep my hops fresh.
Put hops 4oz. of hops in jar, put inner canning lid on, suck out all the air with the pump, then put the outer lid on and store in freezer.
You could always get a vacuum sealer instead, but I like the low tech approach. If any one piece breaks I am out $10 at the most. Nothing has broken in 2 years of use.
Seems like a good idea. Width and height are right, but what about depth? If I stack my battery and phone, it easily doubles the depth. I could buy one for a tablet, but is that going to be deep enough? I might just go for this instead. http://amzn.com/B003UEMFUG I know a quart bag is JUST enough to hold my Nexus 4 in its wallet case and external battery. But you are right about the swiping. An unvacuumed bag makes it very hard to glyph hack.
Here, saved you a search.
I think you're gonna need this.
The black boxes are from Walmart. They sell them near the food storage stuff.
For school, I use these. They're the same thing Chinese takeout places put soup in. They form a super tight deal, and can sit in the top of your book bag. They're cheap enough (50 for $12) that they can be thrown away if they get warped in the microwave over time. Deli Food Storage Containers with Lids, 16 Ounce (50 Count) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005SX9Y4C
You can put rice in the bottom of the bowl, and put your meat/veg on top. To reheat, dribble in a few spoonfuls of water. Heat long enough to boil that water. It re-steams the rice and heats the rest of your food.
A few other things I remembered:
Don't forget mixing bowls. Having a lot of large bowls is always useful.
You will need a strainer or colander or similar to drain your pasta or wash veggies.
Aluminum foil and parchment paper are very useful.
Buy these for storing leftovers. They are way cheaper each than tupperware and stuff, they are reusable, and if they do get ruined, it doesn't matter since they are so cheap. I use these for everything, and I find they have a useful life of nearly as long as the cheap tupperware/gladware/whatever, I don't feel bad about giving them to people, and when I'm cleaning out my fridge of old crap that has gone bad, I can just throw the whole thing out instead of trying to wash stinky old food out of tupperware.
Just buy a big ziploc bag and toss it in there.
That costs $700 though. I was joking a bit about the sous vide, but you could get one and a clear plastic tub for $80 or less. Here are some ziplock bags that will work.
I haven't used any of the products I linked, just an example. But $42 for a 1kw sous vide is pretty amazing. If it isn't powerful enough for the tub just start with hot water and add some from a kettle if needed.

Not OP, but yeah - Ziploc makes em.
I have little stashes of prebagged and presliced stuff that I bring in, usually protein/fat based snacks because they fill me up pretty quick. I live by Ziploc's tiny snack-size baggies, this size, and also the mini little square tupperware thingies, these. I always have a pile of those at home. Every morning I throw something into one or two of that size of container. I standardize it so the weight of whatever is in the container is always 1 oz - makes it easy to log. This week I got extra organized and brought in a whole pile of baggies of snacks on Monday (there are little baggies of 1 oz almonds all over my desk right now) but usually I'm not that organized, but I've finally gotten so that I remember to bring a few pre-bagged, pre-weighed snacks each day. I don't always eat them (if I don't, I bring 'em home and add them to my dinner) but they're there if I really need a pickmeup in the afternoon.
I tend to rotate among these 3 snacks:
