SELF HEATING INDIVIDUAL MEAL PACKAGE

摘要

A self heating individual meal package (10) includes a quantity of foodstuff to be heated. The package consists of a thermal insulated outer pouch (20). Within the package is an electrolytic-solvent activated exothermic-chemical pad or powder enclosed in an absorbent envelope (40), a bag containing electrolytic solvent (52) and a pouch for foodstuff (30). The solvent bag (52) is affixed to a rigid means (51) for the functioning of a tear filament pull-tab mechanism (53) or the rupturing of the solvent bag. The pull-tab is affixed to the solvent bag (55) so that when pulled the bag will open and the electrolytic solvent within can flow out to trigger the exothermic reaction.
