Default Butty Box Question

What kind of butty box do you take with you when fishing? Do you prefer a the proper 'tupperware' type box, or do you make do with an old ice cream tub or similar? I find I catch more fish when I use an old ice cream tub, or even better, large margerine tub.

Do we conclude from this statement that you do your best fishing when your not holding the rod ?
The fish obviously like the flies static

Are we then to deduce that the storage of ones butty in an artificial food product container leads to a greater catch rate?

Now you have me feeling a wee bit peckish
