Everyone struggles to keep cardboard boxes shut. Some people use rubber bands, clips, or plastic containers to keep the food inside the container from spoiling.

One mom found a kitchen hack and shared it in a Facebook video. By folding the box top in an unusual way, it stays shut.

By folding down 3 of the box top sections, then inserting the flap into the slot on the opposite flap, the box stays securely shut.

Folding the box this way changed the container’s shape from a rectangular prism into a milk carton shape. The folding hack worked well.
