Explain why plastic containers are favoured to storing food?
While it is possible to store ice cream equally well in a metal or plastic container, plastic is better from the user's point of view. Metal transfers cold far better than plastic.

It is easier to get the ice cream at the edge of the container. It is easier to reattach a plastic lid on a container than a metal lid.
