I bought one of these when it was on offer........for £20 it was more curiosity than any other reason.

Operates by pouring water over a heat pack, this causes a reaction to wherever the fecks in the wee pouch.
Outer case, place pouch in it,add water. Insert inner metal tray with desired meal. I've only tried super noodles in it. As the song we now chant goes ' super noodles, food for heroes...... Pot noodles they're for zeros', usually after a few wee malts of course. With the noodles, you just need to add a wee bit of water, unlike cooking and having to submerge. Get the lid on and let it simmer away for about 10-15 minutes, works a treat. Ideal if cooking up in a tent/ enclosed area...even a gale force wind!!Eat straight from the case and it keeps it warm.
Took it on my two microadventures, lightweight and compact enough. During transport it can be used to pack everything you need for a meal into its case. Next time I'm going for something different, maybe a wee Chicken Tikka. In theory, if your just heating something rather than cooking the results are ment to be even better (hotter).
Cheers.
