Lysosomes in white blood cells that eat bacteria would store the waste of the bacteria until it could be removed from the body. This is part of the immune system.

Does a mitochondria have a membrane?

Recalling endosymbiont-theory, many millions of years ago a cell was hungry and incorporated a bacterium. So the cell wrapped a lysosome around the bacterium and tried to digest it. But somehow the bacterium resisted and both found that it's an advantage for them to live in symbiosis. The cell fed the bacterium with nutrients and it reciprocated by donating his host energy (ATP). The proof lies within the form of the double membrane: the inner membrane has many wrinkles and resembles a bacterium while the outer membrane is smooth, like the mantle of a lysosome.
