I use these in my kids lunch boxes. I used to get daily complaints about food not being warm by the time lunch rolled around at school. No more complaints with these! Just one in each lunch box does the trick. Need to buy more they work so well!
The Gel Packs are slim and remain flexible even when frozen. They work well for keeping an item warm and heat quickly in the microwave. I don't know how long they retain the heat as I've been putting them in school lunch bags, but my students say they are still warm at lunchtime.
Not too long warm tho
Nothing bad to say
I bought this product specifically for my son's hot lunches (he's kind of a picky eater). I gave this a 5 star because it's prefect for MY kid. What works for mine might not work for others. My son likes his food lukewarm at most. The first time I used it I made him mini corn dogs. I wrapped them in foil & used another piece of foil to wrap the pack around the corn dogs & that seemed to keep them warm but he said they weren't hot (like I said, that's perfect for him). It says to heat it in the microwave for 20 seconds at a time. 20 seconds was OK but I put it in for another to make sure it would be hot enough to keep the food warm. I suggest watching it because it started to inflate by 30 seconds. If you're purchasing this product for the sole purpose of keeping food HOT I would keep looking but if you are looking to just keep the food for getting cold I think this will work for you. I haven't used it for cold yet so I can't speak for that aspect but the material is awesome so I'm sure you'd be happy with it.
