Cereal containers come in various sizes, shapes, and styles, with an airtight seal to keep contents fresh. Some are designed for food service, while others are for home use. Some containers have flip tops, regular lids, or ports for pouring. Some serve dual purposes as a container and a bowl. Baby cereal containers have kid-friendly designs, and very large containers are available for bulk cereals. People may use any airtight container to store grain.
There are many different types of grain containers. Some containers exist for use in the home, while others are designed for food service. A common feature of most cereal containers is an airtight seal that keeps the contents fresh. Cereal containers vary in size, shape and style.
Some cereal containers are not made specifically to hold cereal. In restaurants and cafes, cereals can be stored in any container that is suitable for food storage. A cereal container can also be used in conjunction with a dispenser. For home use, people sometimes use any type of airtight container to store grain rather than buying items specifically manufactured for that purpose. Some people may use glass or ceramic containers, while others may choose plastic or metal containers.
One type of cereal container has a flip top, which allows part of the lid of the container to be opened so people can dispense cereal directly from the container. Other cereal containers may have regular lids with a port in the lid for pouring, and many people use a scoop for this type of container. An individual can still pour cereal directly from a container that has a solid lid, but those with ports in the lids offer more accuracy.
Cereal containers exist in various sizes. Containers intended for use by a single person or a small family may be very small in size, made to hold only the contents of a small box of cereal. Some households may consume a large amount of grain and require a large grain container. Families often use multiple grain containers to accommodate different types of grains. In the foodservice industry, very large containers are available to hold the contents of boxes or bags of bulk cereals.
Some containers are made specifically to hold baby cereal. This type of container usually has pictures, designs, or a color scheme that kids might like. Sometimes containers are manufactured with product links, with logos, images or characters related to cartoons, televisions, movies or music.
Other cereal containers can serve the dual purpose of being a container and a bowl. The bowl-shaped container will have a lid that can seal. Often the bowls of the containers are microwave safe, which allows people to reheat hot breakfast cereal later in the day. Bowl containers are also useful for people who bring their breakfast to work with them and for children who like to eat dry cereal as a snack at school.
