I take a bagel to work every day. I wrap it in a plastic bag, but this isn't great, it usually gets a bit squashed in my backpack.

Is there something that I could use to transport my bagel to work that will prevent this happening? It must be:

  • Not much larger than the bagel - I don't want it rattling around, and there's not much spare room in my backpack
  • Not smaller than the bagel - It mustn't squash it
  • Have a hard exterior - To prevent squashing by other things in the bag

This one from Tupperware carries bagels. You can look for "bagel container" or similar terms to get more results on similar products. Tupperware bagel container on Amazon

A peek of what it looks like: enter image description here

Carry them in one of the round boxes blank CD-roms come in sometimes.

    Could this leech chemicals from the plastic into my food?

    If you want something quick, dirty, and with a chance of poison in your food, get a lifehack. If you want something that has been tested, verified and produced to be safe for food, get something built for the purpose. =p

  • If I was concerned about chemicals, I would cut the "peg" from inside the container. Then, I'd keep my bagel wrapped in that baggie, and use the CD holder to prevent bagged-and-sealed bagel from getting squished.

Tupperware and similar brands have a wide selection of plastic containers. You can probably find one the right size for a bagel.

Have you ever made a book safe? You can make a book safe and stow the bagel inside it; however, I would wrap the bagel in handiwrap or something before putting it in the book safe to avoid ink, paper fragments, or anything else from getting on to my bagel.
