Hydro Flask Food Jar
Best insulated container for packing temperature-controlled school lunches and snacks.
This insulated jar keeps school lunches at the perfect temperature without the bulk of adult-sized containers. The included silicone boot is a brilliant addition for clumsy hands, though the smaller capacity means you’ll need to stick to snacks and sides rather than full-sized meals.
