Mike ~ It is my understanding the PVC and/or plastic is just plain NOT acceptable ever. I only intend to store my CS in glass and most likely amber glass.
On all the holistic animal health discussion lists I'm on and according to our homeopathic vet, one is never to feed or water an animal in plastic, aluminium, or galvanized materials. Same goes for humans. The plastics and PVC's leach out the materials they were made with, thereby contaminating our liquids and foods. It used to be stainless steel and glass were the only things you could cook with, now I understanding stainless leaches cooper and nickel when heated, which can lead to toxicity of these minerals. As such, glass and/or ceramic containers are the only ones you should cook in. I didn't exactly answer your question, but if it were me, I'd store everything in glass. I dumped the couple hundred dollars worth of tupperware I bought years ago. Don't store anything with alumininum foil either... I'm sure someone else can give you more definitive info.
