How Big is a Take-Out Container?

So, now that I've begun to get used to looking for, and avoiding, disposable containers, I'm starting to ask myself, how big does a container have to be before it's no longer a "take-out" container?

a gallon plastic bottle for milk?

a cereal box?

a soda or juice bottle?

those little juice boxes that go in my son's school lunch?

the #5 or #6 yogurt or orange juice plastic containers I can't recycle?

the plastic or paper bag on the loaf of bread I bought at the bakery?
