Product Information
Full details
The YETI Insulated Food Jar is designed for outdoor enthusiasts, hikers, and commuters who need a reliable, compact solution for keeping meals at the perfect temperature. Its primary benefit is superior double-wall vacuum insulation that maintains the temperature of hot soups or cold salads for hours while remaining 100% leakproof, though its modest 237ml capacity means it is best suited for small portions or snacks rather than full main meals.

FAQs
Is the YETI Insulated Food Jar microwave safe?
No, like all stainless steel vacuum-insulated containers, it should never be placed in a microwave.
Can I put it in the freezer?
While it can be chilled, it is not recommended to freeze the jar as it may damage the vacuum seal.
What is the capacity of this jar?
This specific model holds 237 ml (approximately 8 oz).
Does the lid retain odors?
The lid components are designed to be disassembled for thorough cleaning, which helps prevent lingering food odors.
Is it safe to store acidic foods like tomato soup?
Yes, the kitchen-grade stainless steel construction is highly resistant to corrosion and does not impart flavor.
What does 'MagVent' mean?
MagVent is a pressure-relief system integrated into the lid that vents the container as you begin to unscrew it.
Troubleshooting
Lid is difficult to open
Ensure you are using the MagVent feature correctly to release pressure; if still stuck, run the lid under warm water.
Food is not staying hot long enough
Pre-heat the stainless steel container with boiling water for 5 minutes before adding your meal.
Leaks detected
Check the rubber gasket for debris or damage and ensure the lid is screwed on straight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance, pre-heat the jar by filling it with boiling water for a few minutes before adding your hot food, or pre-chill it in the fridge for cold items. To clean, twist the two-piece lid apart to reach all internal surfaces. The entire unit is dishwasher safe, but if washing by hand, use warm soapy water and a bottle brush to ensure the interior walls are fully sanitized. Always ensure the lid is threaded correctly before placing it in your bag to maintain the 100% leakproof seal.
