I was just reading this afternoon that if you leave them sit overnight with a mixture of baking soda and water the smell will be gone the next morning. I haven't tried it yet but hopefully it will work. (09/01/2010)

I wash them in warm soapy water and soak overnight in a mixture of half white vinegar and half water. (09/04/2010)

I run them all through the dishwasher, and don't seem to have odor problems, no matter what I store in them. (09/05/2010)
