What's the difference between a lunch box, lunch bag and bento box?

A lunch box is a rigid container for food. A lunch bag is an insulated carrier for lunch boxes, snacks and drinks, and a bento box has separate compartments to keep different foods apart. A bento box can also be packed inside an insulated lunch bag to help keep everything together.

How do insulated lunch bags keep food fresh?

Insulated lunch and cooler bags have a lined interior that slows heat transfer, helping keep food cool for hours, especially with an ice pack. Insulated food jars work in a similar way to help keep hot meals warm until lunch. For best results, pack food chilled and follow food safety guidance.

Are lunchboxes leak-proof and safe for food?

Many lunch boxes and bento boxes have sealed, clip-lock or leak-resistant lids to stop spills, and most are made from food-safe, BPA-free materials. If you carry liquids or dressings, look for a leak-proof seal. Check the product description for specific features.

How do I clean a lunchbox or lunch bag?

Most plastic and glass lunch boxes are dishwasher safe, though it's best to hand wash lids and seals to protect them. Wipe insulated bags inside and out with a damp cloth and air them to keep them fresh. Always check the care guidance on the product page.
