It's okay to use a plastic bag to keep cut of food in the fridge right?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If it's a bag: OK for food and not used for other industrial products. Plastic is fine as long as the food isn't incredibly hot when placed in the bag. Though if you are really worried about plastic, try to find some Pyrex glass containers with glass lids.
