No. Square container is better because the edges of the container perfectly fit as a lid, letting me easily drop a frozen serving of soup in.

Wouldn't soup just leak all over the place if you put it on a square? A cube would be better.
As a liquid, soup conforms to any dimensional space it's put in.

Food grade forever chemicals! 😂
Stasher silicone storage bags (which these appear to be, or at least their non-NA counterpart brand) are PFAS and PFC free.
Is that all that is being found in our bloodstreams and balls? Kinda thought it was just all dangerous but haven’t looked into it
But my Buldak ramen brick fits perfectly into my square glass Tupperware.
Explain that, science.
I'm in love with the shape of soup

Why is there not more triangular tupperware?
You get the ultimate free spout unlike the abject compromise that is the corner of square tupperware and you get far more options for tessellation when storing items in the fridge or freezer.
Big Container only wants you to buy it triangular for pie
Essentially no glass options
Considering freezer storage tessellation as a deciding factor in your storage container shapes feels like putting theory way ahead of practice. But I still want them.
I think there's actual logic here. If you're storing a liquid, you're probably going to be getting it out with a big spoon, so the round sides make that easier than flat sides and corners. If you're storing something like lasagna, you're probably cutting servings into squares/rectangles, so the flat sides make more sense.
Use square spoons smh my head
(Spoonposting & I’m on a roll)
This ladle is reinforced silicone in the back half of the scoop, and soft, flexible silicone on the front half, so you can scoop into corners easily. It's very nice, even for cylindrical containers because there is still a corner where the wall meets the bottom.

If you're storing a lot of liquid you'll probably want to pour it out later. In that case square is better as the corners will provide a bit of spout action.
I suppose it depends on how liquid your soup is. Mine usually has enough matter in it to make pouring difficult.
As someone who cooks large batches of food to freeze, the problem with round is that it wastes tons of space in the freezer. I just use scores of rectangular cubes and my freezer is completely full.
Hexagons are the bestagons!
Why not just fix it with a round freezer
But now my round freezer is wasting space in my square room...
Welp, time for a new house I guess.
