How the fuck is all western MREs 30€-a-meal tacticool m4 extrem trail hike: school schooter edition when, going by sold out online listings, I could get a chinese self heating hot pot for like 5 eurodollars?

These things would be insanely convenient to just toss in my bike bag and have a warm vegan meal on a cold days bike ride

    China will be the first country to have those self-cooking ramen bowls from Cowboy Bebop where you pull a string on a metal base at the bottom of the cup and it cooks in a few seconds.

      You can already buy those for a few hundred yen. They just are really niche since normally microwaves are available or hot water is.

      Haidilao already sells self-healing hotpot bowls, just add water. Pretty close imo:
