Ice trays with lids - OXO brand?

  I have the OXO ones. They are ok - I like that the ice cubes pop out really easily, and the size and shape fits well into bottles (unlike bigger square cubes) BUT the lids are kind of hard to slide on and off when I fill the tray, I always seem to spill water when I do it...and since the cubes are shallow I don't like losing water in them. So I guess I'd rate them like a 3 or 4 out of 5 - nice but not perfect. We really go through too much ice to make it in trays anyway, I usually get a bag of ice at the grocery store.

  I think she means to make food?

  We bought tiny rubbermaid containers, but that's probably going to end up being annoying to deal with all those separate containers. If I were having to buy the ice cube trays anyways, I think I'd just go with the special baby food ones like these:

  As one reviewer on amazon put it:

  Sure, this may be a glorified ice cube tray. But can you guarantee your $1 ice cube tray is phthalate and BPA free? And you're going to spend about the same $ to buy an ice cube tray with a lid.

  Yes, I was asking for baby food - sorry, didn't make that clear.  I like these on Amazon because the lid comes all the way off rather than sliding. Thanks!
