Usually when i heat my food in this lunch box, i remove its lid and then put my lunchbox in microwave oven, but last week i left the lid on top of the glass container and put it in the microwave oven. When my food was warm, due to the heat the lid was bent and since i wanted to eat my food in my office i applied excessive pressure to close the lid, and so the side clamp of the lid broke.
After a few try and error, it appeared that hot glue together with pressing the lid on the glass container result in something relatively satisfactory.
If you try decided to try this i suggest do not put the lid together with your food in a microwave since the glue is not a food quality plastic, and also it melts at relatively low temperature. I still have not washed this lid in my washing machine to see if the glue become loose or not. I will update it here.
Update: after washing the lid two times in washing machine (set at 50 degree C), the glued lid is still in good shape.
