Many of the baskets and storage items can safely store food items, particularly those made from natural materials like sea grass, straw, and rattan. However, it's crucial to ensure these materials are clean and free from any chemicals. Products such as the Storage Tray Triple Nat/White are ideal for storing fruits, vegetables, and even baked goods, thanks to their natural and breathable properties. Nonetheless, it's recommended to use liners or place food in containers before storing them in the baskets to maintain the hygiene of the materials and prevent contamination. Items specifically designed for kitchen use may come with added features that enhance their suitability for food storage.
