This container is perfect for snacks and things you don’t want any unwanted pests to get into. It’s so easy to clean. You have to make sure to pull apart the top when cleaning so it will drain well. When you add the things you want to it and put on the lid you have to push the button down to seal it. That’s what makes it air tight. And I tried to pull the top off while it was sealed and I couldn’t without actually breaking it. It’s the perfect size to put back up in the cabinet or leave out. Whatever you choose to do.
