Leak proof means peace of mind, and there’s no point using a reusable lunch box if you need to wrap it in a plastic bag! The vacuum sealed lid lock ensures this range is 100% leak proof and airtight, which also means your meal prepping will stay fresher for longer, additionally reducing food waste.

You break the seal by simply pushing the button to release the lid lock. You will find the lid opens more easily if you pull it upwards slowly rather than quickly. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I look after my meal prep sets?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eBe careful not to use sharp objects like knives directly on the steel as this can cause scratches. Do not use bleach, cleaners containing chlorine, abrasive cleaners or scrubbers on any part of the box as they may dull the finish and cause scratches. All seals and the lid lock valve (the grey silicone part ONLY, do not remove the actual lid button) are fully removable for deep cleaning. We also advise washing all parts with warm soapy water before you use them for the first time. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BLACK+BLUM","offers":[{"title":"Grey\/Red","offer_id":47087200534665,"sku":"FBSSBLL017CA","price":36.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/2661\/3385\/files\/Black-Blum-Steel-Food-Bowl-Large-1801.jpg?v=1782372742","url":"https:\/\/www.babyenroute.com\/products\/black-blum-microwavable-steel-food-bowl-large","provider":"baby enRoute","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
