How to Store a Cottage Cheese Container Upside Down

Cottage cheese containers are perfect to not only store cottage cheese, but other food products as well. Cottage cheese actually lasts longer when you keep the container stored upside down. This keeps one surface area from being constantly accessed to top air, which in the end causes mold. However, you need to make sure the container is leak proof, or you may end up with a large mess on your hands.

Things You'll Need

• Cottage cheese container
• Plastic wrap
• Rubberband

Instructions

1. Place plastic wrap around the top lid of the container, making sure it can wrap around the base of the container.

2. Place a rubberband around the plastic wrap to securely tighten the plastic. This keeps any cottage cheese that may leak out from dripping onto other items in your refrigerator.

3. Gently rotate the cottage cheese container upside down. Do not do this if the container is almost completely full; the lid might give way, and the plastic wrap won't be able toprotect the rest of the fridge from the container's contents.

4. Insert the cottage cheese container into a refrigerator upside down. You must keep it inside the refrigerator when not in use or it will spoil more quickly.
