What do you put your food waste in? I can't stand the ugly brown 'caddy' from the council.

At the moment I put it in a takeaway box then every day or two I wrap it in newspaper and put it in the outside food bin but I don't like the fact that you can see what's in the box, and it jumps about in the dishwasher.

I have a lovely Lakeland Peely bin for my compostable scraps and I want something equally inoffensive to look at.

It needs to be air tight to keep the smells in/flies out and not too big (takeaway box is about the right size).

What do you use? Is there such a thing?

I've just bought this from my new favourite shop.

It holds 3/4 of a pint (plenty for a day or two's waste) and the lid's pretty snug so shouldn't let smells out, it's dishwasher proof and isn't breakable - perfect!
