Seems pretty neat. I always intend to cook food ahead and freeze it in serving-size portions... and trying to stack a bunch of cup or half-cup sized containers in the freezer could be messy - but trying to put stuff in freezer bags would be a pain, too - so these containers look awfully neat.I hate their stupid video. Just show me the *$*#@! container already!
