Red face Acid Free

I always see where everyone stores their fabric in "acid free" boxes or containers. My question is how do you know if the box or storage container is acid free? If it's not stated on the sale sign ect. Most of the time I see the "acid free" on boxes, do the plastic containers contain acid? I'm always needing storage containers but I'm stumped as to what is acid free, what is the acid and what does it do to the material? I'm sure back when my Mother was quilting there wasn't anything about acid free. Jeepers how many times have I said "Acid Free"? Thanks for any help on this subject I know this is the place for true to the point answers, I love this board.
