What are the hazards of self-heating rice?

Self-heated rice, also known as instant rice, is a box lunch made of high-quality rice with refined meat, fresh vegetables and mushrooms. Adopt a series of advanced high-tech technologies, vacuum sealed packaging and high-temperature sterilization. Self-heating rice is actually the result of the reaction between the water bag in the lunch box and the heating agent packaged in non-woven fabric. It is equipped with a heating bag. Once the plastic tape is pulled off, the water bag will burst. At this time, the heating agent will react chemically with water, so that the heating agent will radiate heat evenly. After contact with water, the temperature will rise immediately within 3-5 seconds, with the temperature as high as 150℃, the steam temperature as high as 200℃ and the heat preservation time as long as 3 hours. Raw rice is easy to cook cooked rice, and the heating process is pollution-free and the cost is low.

Traditional convenience foods need to be soaked in boiling water before they can be eaten. Some special people, such as outdoor exploration, tourism, troops and police officers on duty, can't eat without boiling water. Self-heated rice eats without boiling water or heat. Tear open the outer package, pour the purified water bag inside on the heating bag, and the water and the heating bag will automatically mix and heat. Rice and vegetables should be steamed for 8- 15 minutes.
