how long is this? is it long enough to avoid getting food all over your knuckles when eating mountain house meals?

I have used this spork with Mountain House meals & can say with confidence that it's long enough to reach to the bottom of the larger pouches without getting your knuckles greasy. Keep in mind that it also depends on where you cut the pouch open too. If you cut it high, you'll have greasy knuckles. If you cut the pouch right above the zipper line, you'll be fine.

I purchased this tool for just that occasion. It will work okay but there will be some licking of the knuckles when your done..... One nice feature is the increased angle of the spoon head for getting the food out of the bag easier.

A little longer then a regular spoon. Unless your heavily knuckled I'd say you'll be ok.

It is 17cm from tip to tip. The handle is 11cm from the tip to where it starts to have a polished surface.

sorry i am just now seeing your email. i would get a medium to spread the food out more, which would slow down eating just a tad :).

I think its pretty long. I keep it next to outlet and when not in use it wraps around base of toaster about 1.5 times.

I have left it in overnight, sometimes a day or two. It sorta squishes down & is a lot thinner than you want it to be. Also depends on what you eat, corn chips etc make it come out too...

I use this mostly for backpacking. I will usually soak it for an hour or so before I'm ready to eat, then 5-10 minutes of boiling and it's done. It does take a while to soften up without the soak but otherwise it has been great.

Hasn't been an issue for me. I've pulled large hunks of meat like pork shoulders and briskets out of my smoker without too much trouble. Basically just jabbing the claws into the bottom of the meat, and hold them there with sufficient tension. I haven't had a case where the claws went in deep enough to cause my hands to touch any of the meat.

The one I purchased is long enough for my daughter to fit in her mouth and she will occasionally chew on it; due to this fact I take it off her at night. Some people wrap it around their child's ankle instead because it stays in contact with the skin. Whatever you're comfortable with.

It seems as though your numbers are lower than what I see. James comment about your altitude is important, but so is what you are trying to bag. If you are trying to bag some food that is hot (or even warm), it can reach "boiling" before you get to the level of vacuum you desire. Ideally any food being bagged should be cold to prevent this from happening.

go ahead give it a shot ! In my experience it gets pretty difficult to eat ice cream while jogging - particularly the chocolate chip from Ben and Jerrys. You can try other brands and flavors. Generally speaking the spills make the handlebars and hands quite sticky and irritating.

I have not tried 6 hours.. I have tried 3 to 4 hours which has no issue.. I usually put the hot food around 8 or 9 and eat it around 12

About 2". No need really to catch fat. The coals burn it off. Never had that problem. The best things about this grill is that (1) you can cook more on it because it's rectangular, and (2) it closes up for storage and travel. I keep the tongs & lighter fluid inside for travel. One issue I have with it is that it gets hotter on one end even though all vents are opened equally. Never have figured that out. Hope that answers your question.

You can just drape the excess top of the bag over the edge - there will be about 3-4 inches of excess. The bag is very soft and malleable so it doesn't fall into the container when you place food in there.

That is not something i would feel safe doing to my fozzils. They survive hot foods while backpacking but i could see them warping if exposed too long to high heat.

I measured them a couple of weeks ago and I can't remember the details. We are no longer where I can measure them. I bought them for my mother-in-law who has parkinsons. I know they are long enough to reach her lap. I wondered when I ordered them if they would be long enough and they are just right. I ordered the three pack and we use them for each meal. I don't think you will be dissatisfied with this product.

I have never timed it, as I usually unplug the unit and carry the whole thing to the cafeteria and eat it right away. I am a teacher and use this at school. I plug it in when I arrive in the morning. We have lunch about 4 hours later and my food is hot by then. You won't want to remove the metal insert right away; it will be pretty hot.

Hello, this was a gift; however, the recipient told me he can put hot food in it and it's still very warm at lunch. The recipient leaves for work at 5:30 a.m. and has lunch at 11:00. I would feel confident saying that your food would be edible for 7 hours. Hope this helps! He is very happy with this product.
