MyGo Containersâ„¢ - New Reusable To-Go Container
The demand for takeout and grab-and-go food services has surged dramatically due to the pandemic, affecting various dining settings like college campuses, restaurants, and even cruise ships. Before the pandemic, the U.S. was already producing approximately 82.2 million tons of packaging and containers annually, with over half being recycled, but still leaving a significant portion ending up in landfills. As many indoor dining venues remained closed at the beginning of 2021, the reliance on single-use items such as Styrofoam and paper takeout containers has skyrocketed, creating both an environmental issue and an added financial burden for foodservice businesses struggling with tight budgets.
An alternative solution is to switch to reusable to-go containers instead of disposable ones. MyGo™ Containers represent the latest advancement in this category. Although reusable takeout containers aren't a novel concept—there were mentions online around 2012—their initial adoption occurred primarily in college and university dining environments. It's important to note that acceptance didn't happen overnight; there was always a segment of early adopters who believed strongly in the environmental and waste reduction benefits these containers could offer.
Given that nearly a decade has passed since their inception, you might wonder how a new container could still be considered innovative. What sets MyGo apart from others is its lid design, featuring a leak-resistant gasket. This gasket seals the edges of the lid and also isolates the internal compartments. This means your food stays separate—ordering a burrito with chips and salsa ensures you receive exactly that: a burrito with mole sauce (if applicable), a side of crispy chips, and a separate serving of salsa, all thanks to the sealed compartments.
The MyGo™ Container also boasts an attractive appearance, making it comfortable to hold and enhancing meal preparation. Available in six standard translucent polypropylene colors, the gasket can match the container's hue or contrast for a distinct look. These containers work well for elegant catering events or everyday use, such as packing them into a backpack for school lunches—even if they're placed sideways. In addition to the gasket, there are three snap-tight tabs to keep the hinged lid securely closed during transit and maintain the warmth of hot meals. Made from durable polypropylene, these containers are microwave-safe, dishwasher-friendly, and 100% BPA-free. They can be nested when not in use to save space and stacked for easier transportation.
Currently, there is a three-compartment MyGoâ„¢ Container measuring 9-3/8†x 9-3/8†x 2-1/2â€D. The full range will be launched in late spring and includes various sizes suitable for sandwiches, pizza slices, salads, and other two- and three-compartment designs. Tailored for college and university dining operations, the MyGoâ„¢ Container and its gasket can be customized in any color. There’s also a convenient spot on the lid for logos.
The MyGo is exclusively available through Cook’s Direct.
