WHY HUNGRY APPLE LUNCHBOX CALLED  4 AND 6 COMPARTMENTS IN ONE?
All Hungry Apple Lunchbox has a removable divider compartment, which can settle all kinds of lunch meal fit. So it has 4 compartments without the divider and 6 compartments with the divider compartment

HOW DO I CLEAN MY HUNGRY APPLE BOX

IS HUNGRY APPLE LUNCHBOX LEAKPROOF?Hungry Apple Lunchbox is a leakproof container in 4 compartments set. With 6 compartments, please put all wet food with the stable compartments to keep leakproof. DO NOT put any wet food in the removable divider. The each
including wet foods like yogurt and Ketch up (not juice). Foods will not leak between compartments or outside of the box.

HOW DO I PACK WET FOODS?
Hungry Apple lunchbox 4 compartments can hold wet foods but not liquids. To ensure that food stays in place and does not leak to other compartments, follow these 4 Easy Steps:
1) Do not overfill compartments (an overfilled compartment could cause another to leak as well);
2) Remove any excess liquid from canned fruit, apple sauce and yogurts;
3) When closing Hungry Apple Lunchbox, press down on the lid with the palm of your hand and snap latch to close position to create the best seal.
Do not pack yogurt drinks, soups or runny/watery dressings.
Do pack foods with the consistency of ranch dressing, ketchup, chunky salsas, hummus,
yogurt, and veggie dips. These are all great options. Some oily vinaigrettes may leak out of the dip well. One trick that can help keep vinaigrettes in place is to dress the salad and top it with a few croutons. The croutons will absorb excess oil/liquid and keep the vinaigrette from seeping into a neighboring compartment. If you are not sure if your food choice is too liquidy to pack, we suggest that you conduct a quick test before sending your child to school with that food. Simply add the test food to a compartment, close Hungry Apple lunchbox properly and give it a good shake (or leave it on its side for 10 min.).
