Will the insulated bag safely keep soup hot?

I've never tried it with hot food. Mostly cold. And without any additional ice packs- the food stays cold for maybe two hours. I would think if the hot item is like soup- it would keep warm for the same amount. Otherwise- mashed potatoes, pasta, chcken- no go.

Nope. And if you want a big portion of food, this won't be the choice either

The product is not designed to perform the function of a vacuum flask (thermos). There is no insulating space or material. The seal of the larger container is not airtight / leak-proof. The seal for the smaller container is better, but you should not rely on it. I would not rely on this product to keep food warm / hot / cool / cold.

Actually this is not an insulated bag at all. It is environmental friendly made of 100% bamboo. It is just a cloth bag. My spouse still uses it daily to take his lunch to work in. It is not exceptionally big but it holds his lunch, as well as his snack.

I actually do use it for soup. Of course you have to be careful, like opening a hot radiator.

yeah for sure. good idea actually. i wouldn't do a soup or liquid - not sure if water tight. i carry crackers around in ours.

I have used for soup, I add hot water to the thermos while heating soup on the stove. The soup stays warm.

I never had the opportunity to carry the bag in that much heat. It is well insulated and I think with extra cold packs it may be just fine. The bag was a lot larger than I thought it would be so I do not use it for work everyday. More of a cooler for special occasions.

I have not used it for soup but would do it. Just because of the sealing from inside. Just be careful with the cap/lid. It does not stay tight.

I suggest to soak the cups in warm water (not HOT, but little warmer than luke-warm) before pouring the hot soup...And yet, may be the soup could be not boiled hot hot...

The main cup is just plastic so watch your heat. You should use the soup cup. It has a vent for just that purpose.

will keep food warm and cold. no it is not a thermos but works like one. I really like it for soup and other foods.

The cardboard sleeve that comes wrapped around it states that it is NOT leakproof. I don't think it's meant for soup.

The storage bag has a cut out at the back and heats up in the bag itself. I was worried at first about it possibly melting, but it doesn't.

Yes. It might still be heavy to tote in a bag. Unlike a solid cooler with a grab handle. The insulated bag will help keep your food cold longer.

I don't think that I would try it for hot soup. It is fairly small. I used it for carrots/celery/ranch dressing. I don't know how it would handle the temperature of soup.

If the food is super hot it will keep it warm for that long. Also the cup should be washed in boiling water and kept in a dry place.

I find with cold food it needs an ice pack so I imagine you would need to use an insulated thermos to keep foods really warm/hot.
