Keeps food warm for several hours with a few tricks
My son is really peculiar with food.
He's not a big fan of sandwiches and several other types of "typical" food you would pack for your kid's lunch.
He loves fruits, but we couldn't just pack fruits forever.
We wanted to pack warm food, like rice, soup, stew, etc, stuff we know he likes and would eat.
We generally pack it around 7:30 AM and it's still warm by lunch.
A few hints and tips we got elsewhere:
- before packing the food, put some hot water in the thermos for a minute. Putting hot food in a cold thermos will lower the food temperature a little bit.
- pack really hot food. The hotter the food, the warmer it will be by lunch.
