HOTLOGIC Mini Heated Lunch Box- Portable Electric Food Warmer

I am a flight attendant and this little device has revolutionized what I am able to eat on the go. Instead of warming canned soup (filled with sodium and preservatives) on a coffee pot burner in a galley between services, I can now eat a healthful, home cooked meal! It fits in either my carry on bag or my large sized insulated lunch box from Travel Pro. The electric cord tucks neatly away in a back pocket so it doesn't get tangled. It's easy to keep clean and has a good strong zipper and pulls on it. I ordered mine with the Pyrex dish included, which completely fills the Hot Logic Mini. Initially I would pack a main protein and two side portions inside this dish, separating the side portions in little silicone cupcake cups. It did the trick for the most part but with all the moving around my bags endure, some of the side portions spilled out (I don't like candied yams in my spinach so...) Because of this and the fact that I am on the road for three days at a time, I have since purchased several two cup rectangle Pyrexs for my main meal portion and a few smaller, square one cup Pyrex dishes for side portions. I can fit one of each at a time in the Hot Logic Mini (one big, one small). Because these are both shorter dishes, this also allows me enough room on top of the dishes to pack flexible ice packs INSIDE the Hot Logic. I refrigerate the meal and side I am planning to eat on day one, put it in the Hot Logic Mini and put ice packs on top. When I am ready to eat, I take out the ice pack, plug in the HLM and in fifteen to twenty minutes I am ready to eat! The other meals I freeze and keep sealed up in my lunch box until day two. At the start of day two I take all the ice packs off the frozen meal to let it defrost. For day three I pack dried or canned goods that can be warmed. I can also easily earn instant oatmeal, soup, leftovers...really anything. What impressed me most about this thing is how quickly, evenly and thoroughly this device warms up and cooks food. With a tight sealed lid my food is always perfectly warm and moist. I've cooked and rewarmed takeout food from airports and nothing has ever dried out or burnt. I can't say enough good things about this device. It really has expanded the healthfulness of the meals I eat while flying. It has also saved me probably $15-20 a day on eating out at airports between flights. Well worth the initial investment.
