fall out.

press down on the lid everywhere. Open the box and check that the
lid seal is smooth and flat.

The side compartments are great for dry foods (crackers, carrot
sticks) but you can pack moist items here too. Just make sure
there’s < 1 tsp of liquid in each compartment.
To close OmieBox®, fold down the lid and latch it. Use the palms of
your hands to push down on the box lid once it’s closed. This will
activate the lid seal.
The divider is great for keeping peas away from carrots but its
sub-sections are not leakproof.
Don’t put your OmieBox®in the microwave or freezer!

When founder Nancy Yen’s sonstarted preschool, he decided to stop eating
lunch. A picky eater who ranked in the lowest percentiles for weight and
height, he refused to touch his lunch unless it was warm - like the lunches he
was used to at home.
Nancy searched high and low for a container that could pack hot lunch (plus
it had to store cold food and be easy to use!). When she couldn’t find
anything, she decided to create it herself. What began as an invention of
necessity is now OmieBox®- one of the most highly recognizable & best
selling bento boxes for kids in the world.
