However, the shuttle was my second choice (if it only had more dividers ...) and I do like that it's not plastic, so I would still really like to hear how they work out. If you could share if it fits enough food for lunch and if the divider keeps the foods separated completely, that would be super helpful. Thank you!
Sure thing! With regards to keeping foods separate, I suspect it's the same as the other PlanetBoxes where dry foods stay completely separate but something that has liquid pooling from it could spill over. The Shuttle set does come with a tall dipper which is perfect for any dips or even a small serving of yogurt, apple sauce, mashed berries, rice pudding or other puddings etc. And that seals in the product so it's leakproof.
So, you could stick the tall dipper into the large or small side which gives some more division to the compartments. I know some people use the silicone cupcake liners as separators as well. I'd think you would want ones that were tall enough to reach the lid so things wouldn't spill if it was flipped over.
I hope that the YumBoxes work out for you though so you aren't forced into getting something else. Buying multiple lunch box ideas gets pricey! I've got a boat load of other stainless steel and glass containers that I bought prior to all this PlanetBox stuff and it just takes up space in our drawers and makes me feel bad for wasting resources buying new things. The other containers are good, just didn't work well for us, so I really should sell or give them away to someone so they get use.
