It kinda warped/deformed a lot as well. The food didn't seem to have a plastic taste. I hope nothing seeped out from the plastic into my food.


Luckily the bag did not start to leak or break apart completely.

To elaborate further on my original post. There is nothing more disheartening after expending 6000 calories or more in a day hiking and climbing only to find that your dinner in a bag has just kissed the ground because the bag decided to give out completely from the hot water. No matter how much your g/f or friends love you, they will not relish the thought of having to share their dinner with you as their bodies are craving the needed calories as much as your body is.

Carry the food in the bag and use a pot, you will much better off in the long run/hike.
