I LOVE this curry paste.  It beats Thai Kitchen hands down, I bought that recently in a pinch and I was SORELY disappointed.  This container is HUGE and will last you FOREVER.  Seriously, I have this in green, red, and yellow, and one container will last me several years.  It may be different for you depending on how often you make curry.  The ingredients for this paste are clean and are whole30 and paleo compliant.  The flavor is amazing, and I usually only need about 1 tbsp of this paste to deliver all of the robust flavor I need.  This container is about the size of a pint of ice cream, but not as tall.  But yes, it's large.  The paste comes in a sealed plastic bag inside of the plastic container.  I just cut a corner off the top and squeeze out what I need.  I store the rest folded up in the plastic container and keep it in my cabinet with my other spices.  I cannot stress enough how wonderful this stuff is and how nothing compares.
