Salad Jar with Side Opening & Dressing Cup

Salad enthusiasts: Prepare to have your lettuce-loving minds blown. This clever salad jar features a side-opening design (so you’re not awkwardly digging into a deep container); layer ingredients vertically to keep them crisp and fresh until you’re ready to eat. We love the leak-resistant double-lock lid, separate dressing cup, and sleek grab-and-go design that makes healthy lunches feel way more doable. Perfect for salads and protein bowls that could use a little glow-up.
