S'well Food Container

Product Information

The leak-proof feature also made it stress-free to transport our salad without worrying about any spills or messes. S’well Eats represents the more luxe side of S’well’s new food containers. In their research, S’well discovered that many of the existing vacuum-insulated “food jars” fell short of people’s needs owing to their tall narrow shape and metal-only construction. The company set to work making something innovative and, as a result, S’well Eats has glass “prep-bowls” inside each container that allows users the ability to reheat food before leaving for work in the morning, and having it still be warm by the time lunch rolls around.

Their design makes it easy to carry them around, which means you can take them with you to work, picnics, or any outdoor activity. I've found a lot more products similar to this: https://thermos.com/collections/kids-food-jars-1/products/thermos-r-kids-food-jar-with-handle-10oz that are more tall than wide. This seems harder to eat from but there are so many more products with this design that I wonder if I am missing something. Maybe the taller design keeps things at temperature for longer? Even if your lunch box seems pretty clean, it still needs to be washed out on a fairly regular basis. Food always leaves a stench behind, and sometimes, leaks happen and we don’t even notice. Keep your lunch containers bacteria-free by washing the interior every few days (or more, if necessary).

Avoid the situation altogether by investing in some sturdy, durable containers that allow for a mess-free commute. Here are some of our recommendations: You’ll find BPA in polycarbonates, a clear, hard plastic often used for reusable water bottles. Phthalates, mostly found in PVC, make plastics softer and more flexible. You can assume flexible plastics (i.e., plastic wraps) contain some phthalate content unless otherwise stated – NIEHS . Swell food containers are reusable and durable, meaning you can use them multiple times without worrying about any wear and tear. A decade later, S’well is launching the next phase of its mission to reduce single-use plastic-with reusable food storage containers.

Instead, the safest food storage containers are made from non-porous, non-reactive, and non-petroleum-based materials. Glass, stainless steel, silicone, and natural waxes fit the bill. The swell food containers bowl kit is also incredibly easy to clean. We just threw it in the dishwasher, and it came out looking as good as new. Anotherfavorite was the Swell Stainless Steel Bowls, which were able to keep our food and drinks cold for 11 hours and heated for 7 hours without condensation because to its triple-layered vacuum insulation. One of the standout features of the bowls is their capacity. At 21.5 oz, they are the perfect size for a full meal, and the wide opening makes it easy to eat from the container without spilling. We were impressed with the quality of these swell food containers – they were sturdy and well-made, ensuring that our condiments stayed securely inside.

Their beautiful colors and finishes add an aesthetic appeal that elevates your lunch game while minimizing waste. It’s a good idea to avoid buying a lunch box or container that’s really difficult to clean, especially if it’s for your kids. That will only make your life harder. While those bento boxes that are all over social media might be aesthetically pleasing, they can also be really annoying to clean. All those tiny crevices can also become a breeding ground for mold. The environment isn’t unscathed, either. When someone disposes of plastic food containers, they linger for hundreds of years. Marine life often mistakes this plastic for food (and we know where that leads). Plastic also leaches chemicals and microplastics that contribute to soil and water pollution – UNEP . Additionally, Swell food containers are also very easy to clean and maintain. You can pop them in the dishwasher without worrying about any damage. Overall, we highly recommend the Swell Stainless Steel Salad Bowl Kit to anyone looking for a sustainable and stylish way to enjoy their meals on the go. It’s a great addition to our collection of swell food containers, and we can’t wait to use it again and again.
