The food container comes to the aid of people who often have to take food with them to work, school or on trips.

It is enough to put food in the container. The closed container fits into the bag without any problems.

At the right moment, the container is opened and the food is removed and consumed.

But plastic containers have one serious drawback: the material absorbs odors quite quickly.

The excess odor cannot be removed even by thoroughly wiping the container with a sponge soaked in dishwashing gel.

Luckily, there is one cheap and accessible remedy that allows you to solve the problem quickly and with incredible ease.

What product will remove the unpleasant smell from the container?

We are talking about the most common baking soda. This powder should be used immediately after the container has been washed and wiped dry.

You need to pour some soda into the bottom of the container. A couple of spoons will be enough.

After this, the container must be closed and wait 5-10 minutes.

Next, the container should be wiped with a simple sponge soaked in water. You need to act carefully so that the powder does not leave any scratches.

As a result, the device should stop smelling bad. If the desired result is not achieved, then you need to put a wad of newspaper inside and wait for several hours.
