Bento Box Review: Making School Lunches has never been easier!
It's BACK TO SCHOOL TIME, and that means SCHOOL LUNCHES! We have a decent enough school cafeteria menu, and my kids are generally happy enough to eat there, but there's a meal about once a week that they won't eat... meaning Mama has to make lunch! These Bento Boxes make packing lunches pretty darn easy!
Honey Graham and I also use them when we take our lunches on the go. The bento boxes have 3 compartments, perfect for salads, snacks, dip, veggies, sammiches, fruits, and more!

Each compartment is leak proof, so applesauce or dressing or condiments won't leak into the other compartments! Plus, this way, you don't have to use tons of plastic or reusable baggies or single use containers. There's four locking clips/tabs.
To make mornings even easier, I can pack this the night before and just throw it in the lunch box or backpack on the way out the door.
Each bento box is made from BPA-free, food-safe plastic and rubber and is also microwave, freezer, and dishwasher (top rack) safe!
Here's some tips and information straight from the company about these boxes, which come in blue, purple, and green:
DIMENSIONS: 9 x 6.5 x 2.2 inches.
COMPARTMENT CAPACITY:
- Large: 3 1/2 cups (Fits Large Sandwich)
- Medium: 1 1/3 cups
- Small: 1 cup.
Leak-proof lid function:
- To close: Place lid on base, press down firmly around entire edge and compartment divider before closing clips, this will ensure the leak-proof seal functions correctly.
- To open: Unlatch all clips, use one clip to lift lid and release the leak-proof seal to allow for easy removal from base.
Cleaning:
- For best results soak after use. Hand wash lid where possible or top rack dishwasher safe.
- To remove stubborn stains or grease from plastic, a white vinegar and water soak can be used followed by a wash and rinse or alternatively a baking soda and water mix is also great for cleaning plastic and rubber.
- Store without lid to prevent any smells.
Freezer Use:
- For freezer use, allow room for ice expansion and let food defrost slightly before removing lid to prevent damage to the container.
Microwave Use:
- Do not exceed 2 minutes in the microwave when reheating food using the base and lid. (Base may be used separately for longer reheating times)
- Do not close clips – Place lid loosely on an angle so all compartments are vented allowing steam to escape.
- Do not microwave empty containers, product is intended for reheating purposes only. (Do not use for cooking)
