Lock & Lock

Hi Chris,

It would really be helpful if Lock & Lock could design a container for uncooked spaghetti.

I have a container set that you suggested would hold spaghetti but you have to tilt it, which limits the amount of product you can store.

We need a slightly taller container that will allow us to store boxes of spaghetti without having to tilt it. Plus LOVE those pitchers (which we can only get once a year). We need to be able to purchase them twice a year. I hesitated too long while watching the presentation and everyone snapped them up and they were gone!

Thanks!!!

@YvonneVine. QVC vendors and hosts don't participate in or read these boards. It's best to contact them through social media. Most have Facebook pages.

They had this setover the Spring. It sold out quickly!

I'm thinking you want to put a few boxes of thin spaghetti in it. I bought at Bed, Bath & Beyond the OXO spaghetti holder holds 3-1lb boxes. I think it was $11.99 and has nice vacumn seal top.

Tallest one in grouping:

you can buy separate pieces

i love all my OXO pieces

@YvonneVine I use the Lock & Lock bread keeper to store boxes of spaghetti.

Several years ago QVC sold acrylic cylinders for cooking pasta by adding hot/boiling water. I fell for them, but didn’t really use them once I got them home. However, you can fit a one pound box of spaghetti in them and the lid snaps shut tight. So this how I made lemonade out of these lemons. You can probably find them in dollar stores or other similar stores.

@YvonneVine

I was going to suggest the same thing as @Pook if you want to store spaghetti..........get the Lock and Lock bread box.

It's somewhere around 14 inches long.

I wish they would make an even longer one that could hold long stalks of celery.

Years ago, they did have a tall container to hold approx. 2 lb. of spaghetti.... now I use one of the refrigerator containers so I can stack it on it's side...I use the smaller ones for a lot of things (macaroni, rice, crackers, noodles, etc....) also use the larger bread containers as canisters for my sugar, flour, 10x sugar, brown sugar, whole wheat flour, protein powder, etc., etc.... they all stack so nicely in my pantry and don't really take up much space... works for me!...

I think they addressed that on one of the shows and said the newer containers would fit the "height" of the spaghetti. I know the ones I have barely fit the spaghetti, but I do tilt it to get it to work. I don't want to have to buy another set. (my older "clear' set fit the spaghetti fine)
