wat??
The are existing self heating ramens by using the same tech USA army warms their MRE "just add water" no matter temperature
Ah I remember that scene-- I just didn't think it was cheap enough to actually make sense to use in the real world. I wonder where they're sold bc I don't think I've run across one in the wild.

Just pasting the link here because it won't load for me
There is a chemical heating element at the bottom of the cup. You add water, pull a string, and it will boil the water without a stove/microwave.
Exothermic chemical reaction heats the food, like modern military MREs
It's a thing, I just looked it up
I just don't know where you find it. I've been in Japan for years and never run across it.
