The main thing to know
The lids are not airtight or leakproof — Caraway's own FAQ confirms this. If you regularly transport soups, stews, or packed lunches, these will leak.
These are polypropylene plastic containers. While FDA-approved and BPA-free, plastic inherently scores lower than glass or stainless steel for food-contact safety in our methodology. If material safety is your top priority, look at glass alternatives.
