I love my circula containers and think that they might be the best food storage option around!

They also work very well for pounding meat, or for coating meat with seasonings. Sometimes food comes in plastic ziplock type bags from the grocery store. I clean these and label them with freezer tape listing the contents (rice, freeze dried fruit, dried fruit, granola, croutons, & shredded cheese come in these bags). Anything I put raw meat in is one time use. I also save produce bags from the store to use the next time I visit, sometimes they don’t even need to be rinsed to be reused.

In other words, will they stick just as well on a hot Summer day?

They are the best in the market. I've been using them for years. They do last a long time with proper care and washing. Wash with cold water, dish soap and cloth or sponge. Do not use hot water or anything abrasive. I have all the sizes and love that they are flexible for different shaped foods from herbs, greens, avocadoes, lemons, tomatoes, cucumber and cheese. I have a couple silicone lids that I use infrequently as I use glass storage containers most times which I can stack. I find the silicone lids suit dishes or containers that do not stack.
