Whether out [camping in the wilderness](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fire-maple-sunflower-x) or simply in a pinch for time, the Shangrao Hukang HK-JRB001 food warming pads are a quick and foolproof way to [heat both food and beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lunchgo). The non-woven fabric inserts make use of chemical qualities in order to [boil water](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instantheating-water-dispenser) in a matter of seconds, and each pad can further keep water at a boil for as long as 25 minutes at a time.

The Shangrao Hukang HK-JRB001 pads are filled with a proprietary combination of calcium oxide and various metal powders. Those chemicals naturally create a reaction with water that sets it to boil far quicker than even putting the water over a controlled flame. Best of all, since the chemicals are in a non-permeable fabric housing (reacting to moisture when it contacts the fabric rather than leaking into the water itself), the boiled water is completely safe and free of toxins.
