Food storage containers crack and lose seals unpredictably

Busy parents and meal preppers buy plastic food storage sets but lids crack from normal dishwasher use, seals fail silently leaving food spoiled mid-week, and finding matching lids after 3-6 months becomes impossible. Replacements are expensive relative to container cost, forcing people to replace entire sets rather than individual lids.
