This container works well with brown sugar but would also work for other ingredients or snacks. It comes with a brown sugar saver, which is a disk that you soak in water and it helps soften hardened brown sugar, so that is what I used it for.

The lid is slightly different from my other POP containers. I am not sure if that is just due to the brown sugar saver or if all new containers will have a slimmer profile. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
