I still can't believe self heating instant meals are an actual thing.

There was no way we could have anything like this today, yet here we are.

Self Heating Meals existed even back then. It was developed for military rations but became available for the public to use in the 90s when Beebop was made.

where the hell can I get one of these? they look so good and it comes with a heating pouch straight out of an MRE. for the longest time, i never understood this technology not being implemented in a ramen bowl or anything like it, and here it is, and it looks pretty effective. If only you could find a ramen you can just cook by adding water like this.

you can get it in Asian grocery stores

[@ZiboCheng]

or you can get it on amazon but they are like 3 time the normal price so I don't recommend it

[@tech4pros1]

The heating pouches in these are different to MRE one's.. The ones in an MRE are magnesium based and generate hydrogen gas. The ones in these self heating hotpots are calcium based and are safer.

[@globsonestreams1969]

I don't think that's the case. I feel like the compound that reacts with water may produce toxic fumes while reacting. In the military rations that use that kind of heating the heat sealed bags with tin foil on the inside so that compound doesn't get mixed in with your food

[@Jaronite]

I disagree. Most food-grade plastic partitions are non-biodegradeable. You will only see the recyclable ones in food like Salad, where no heating is required. This is healthier than cup noodles in the long run, but it doesn't mean it was intended for everyday consumption. Also, correct your spelling, it's "Particles" not "Particals."
