I used to have a microwave in my classroom, but due to a couple of breakers being flipped, I was asked to take it home.  My next option was to stand in line with the rest of the department and wait for a microwave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, a colleague introduced to me the Hot Logic Food Warmer, and I have no regrets!  If you&#8217;ve been following my posts for a while, you know by now that I eat frozen, pre-made meals from <a href=\"https:\/\/athlete.iconmeals.com\/2604.html\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/athlete.iconmeals.com\/2604.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Icon Meals<\/a> for lunch.  Those meals are vacuum sealed into plastic containers and kept in my freezer.  Every morning, I pull a frozen meal out of the freezer and put it straight into my Hot Logic bag.  When I get to work, I plug it in and it begins heating.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Use It<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Put your food in the bag, zip it, and plug it in.  There&#8217;s a warming plate inside the insulated bag that will gradually heat your food.  I&#8217;m amazed that it manages to heat the food well, but doesn&#8217;t melt the plastic.  It even comes with a plastic food container.  There&#8217;s no on\/off switch or any type of setting options.  I would recommend plugging your warmer in at least an hour before you plan to eat, but as mentioned above, I plug mine in when I get to work because I&#8217;m afraid I&#8217;ll forget otherwise.  It doesn&#8217;t overcook my food!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food Quality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I actually prefer the quality of my Icon Meals after they are heated up in the Hot Logic.  When I heat meals that have bread, the microwave can make that bread a little soggy; whereas, the Hot Logic makes it almost crispy!  You know how some foods you have to take out of a microwave and stir?  No need for that with the Hot Logic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This product is such a time saver!  If you have short lunch breaks, give this thing a try.  Additionally, if you have a friend who is a teacher, get them this for their birthday (or Teacher Appreciation Week which is in May ?).  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This month, I only have one favorite product.
