Prefer glasses than plastics
The glasses look better and cleaner than plastic when used as water containers. With glasses, you can easily wash and clean them. Although it is more prone to break but then proper care is an advantage on your part because you can save a lot of water. You can also store food longer in glasses than plastic containers. Using glass rather than plastic significantly reduces landfill in disposal sites, and many say glass gets cleaner than plastic because it isn’t porous.
