Lunch box smells - eradicating

I love my Aladdin Bento box for taking leftovers into work, but I have had an issue with discolouring (it's white.. maybe an error) and also lingering smells from some strong foods.

Any tips for cleaning such plastic type carriers?

Thanks!

    I'd try bicarbonate of soda. Leave some in the box overnight and it should absorb the smells. Don't think it'll help with the discolouration though.
