We’re kicking plastic to the curb (a.k.a. out of our kitchen) in 2026. Okay, maybe not entirely, but we are making some serious swaps for glass!
ICYMI – glass is non-porous, so it won’t absorb any odors or stains from the ghost of dinner past, offers durability, and can withstand temps in the oven and microwave.
Plus, many glass products are dishwasher-friendly (just double check first) for easy cleaning that you don’t have to think twice about. Because who has time to deal with handwashing everything?
We found glass alternatives to your favorite plastic kitchen products, including meal prep containers, mixing bowls, casserole dishes, beverage tumblers and so much more.
Plus, our top picks start at just $10 and are all conveniently available to order at Amazon and Walmart. Shop our favorite glass kitchen alternatives now!
