I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Rubbermaid. I received product samples to facilitate my review as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation.

When it comes to sports programs for my boys, we are on the go constantly. Most Saturday’s consist of running from game to game. This past weekend not only did my boys have soccer games but they had tryouts for basketball. To keep my family fueled for long days, we pack healthy snacks. Often times these snacks are eaten on the field or on a tailgate.

I recently received the Rubbermaid® Party Platter to try out. Let me tell you, this is the perfect container for tailgate snacks! The Rubbermaid® Party Platter is a lightweight portable container that is BPA free. I love that the smaller leak-proof Twist & Seal™ inner container nests securely in the middle of the divided tray to hold dip.

One of the challenges we face with sports teams is the after game snacks. Thankfully, one of my son’s teams has decided not to participate in snack distribution. With so many children with food allergies, I think this is a good choice. Plus, I like to control what my kid’s eat. With portable food containers like Rubbermaid® Consumer Products’ Easy Find Lids™, it’s really easy to pack our own snacks.

Some of our favorite healthy game day snacks are:

  • Vegetables: Carrots, cherry tomatoes, snap peas
  • Fruit: Apples, orange wedges, grapes, berries
  • Crunchy: Pretzels, crackers, nuts
  • Sweet: Granola bars

By using Rubbermaid® food storage containers, I can assemble the snacks ahead of time since the containers will keep food fresh longer. With limited time on my hands, prepping ahead is key. Plus, I don’t have to worry about finding the food container lids since the lids securely snap to the bottom of the matching container during storage.

Before I used Easy Find Lids™, my food storage drawer was a disaster! It was kind of like my boys socks – mismatched and lone soldiers. Now I know every container has a matching lid which saves me time and frustration.

Happy tailgate season!

  1. Really nice container. It’s useful for picnics, I think. Or just for simple snacks at work. Thank you for telling about Rubbermaid® food storage containers.
