⚠️ AVOID: $12-15 plastic lunch boxes sold under multiple brand names on Amazon. Lab testing detected HIGH levels of phthalates (DEHP: 342 ppm—34x over EU limit). Also found BPA despite "BPA-free" label, plus lead in cartoon character paint (87 ppm). Latches break within 2-3 weeks. Strong chemical odor persists after washing. False economy—safety risks not worth $15 savings.
