An oscillatory food warmer simultaneously warms and mixes food while it remains within a sealed can. The warmer includes a housing having an inner wall which defines a chamber for storing water. A heating element is mounted in the housing whereby the temperature of the water may be controlled. A cover supported on the housing closes the top of the chamber. Supports on the cover hold a conventional sealed food container in the water. The sealed can is submerged in the water and supported between two rotatable discs, each frictionally engaging one end of the can. An electric motor rotates a crank shaft, and means are provided to translate rotational motion of the shaft to oscillatory motion in the discs. Quick release structure is provided to facilitate removal of the can from between the discs. A food warming method includes supporting the can substantially submerged in water, heating the water to a preselected temperature, and rotationally oscillating the can.
