- I tried the Haidilao Self Heating Hot Pot. Crazy how this thing heats itself. Watch me unbox and assemble the thing to watch it self heat! I also take apart the heating pouch to see what's in it. Check out what it tastes like to see if you want to try this out for yourself before plopping down the money as it's a bit expensive for an instant meal.

Mix tea with little hot water first and then ice and add seltzer or else it won’t dissolve and all settle at the bottom.
I was thinking the same thing. Although the mixing melted 95% of it. Not mixing it will allow more fizz to stay in the drink.
@@BeatTheBush you could make a heater pack with paper and quicklime , staple the sides into an envelope and put it in the bottom of the large container and put the 5 dollar instant hot pot mix in the small container
what store, city and state did you buy this in?
@@robinsss he say bay area so Northern California
@@robinsss yes, he mentioned the store and showed it in the aisle in the video. Bay Area and if in Sacramento or anywhere else, check your local oriental stores. 99 Ranch Market, Seafood City, Pacific Island, etc.
The ‘heating element’ is also known as a flameless ration heater, since it has been invented for the army.
Well, the first time I drove to the north rim of Grand Canyon, I wanted to have hot pot there, and never ready figured out how to carry all the stuff I needed to do that, this could be one of those things, that would make that plan come true.
Takes waiting for your instant noodles to another level!
Not so instant any more amirite
@@IvanWongHongKong p
@@IvanWongHongKong true but you can still cook them on the go
I tried it today, I was a heathen and switched out the spice mix with a spice mix bag from an orange Samyang ramen packet, because I was pretty sure I can't take the spice level from this original pack. It was really good, husband really liked it as well. Fun way to cook a lunch, too!
AH thank you for posting this! I have been trying to find this everywhere I bought this and ate it on my 16 hour train ride from Chengdu to Xinjian. In China it worked out to be only around $5 Canadian dollars, it was sooo amazing and I also thought this would be perfect for camping here in Canada.
Also the meat should be broken apart imo before you start cooking
Thanks for the video! Was curious on how these hot pot meals work. Might try this myself!
that self assembly chopstick is on another level !
like a toy in a chocolate egg
"sometimes i'm like, why am i?" LOL if that aint me! Guyyy you are an inspiration
I bought myself a chicken & mushroom self heating hot pot from my favorite Korean supermarket.
I got home & there was zero English instrustions.
Your video helped me a lot!
I'm about to chow down.
A massive thank you to you.
Liked & subcribed.
I just love your videos, they are so informative. Hot Pot that cooks, that's pretty cool that it self heats. I need to try this one soon.
Well if you read the comments, plastic waste, preservatives, etc. Great for video though.
im glad i found this channel, i bought two hot pot but im super nervous putting it all together. Im a little bit more confident now. THank you very much!
imagine swallowing the heating element... you get cooked... literally....
I’m instantly impressed by the chop sticks
This was exactly what I was looking for. I misplaced the instructions for the hot pot, also appreciated the walkthrough as I wasn’t sure where was the water fill line in the black container because it wasn’t clearly marked, at least for English
FYI, it's a packet of very fine iron filings with a few other metals. The instant oxidization of the particles produces the heat. Always thought they were neat.
So what's the reduction equation?
I thought the same. Probably the same stuff you put in boots during winter.
... so It's a hand warmer?
My understanding is that a hand warmer isn't sufficiently hot enough to cook. Although the principle is similar, you should be looking at MRE heater instead.
@@simpletongeek The reaction speed would be different when oxidized in air vs. salted water. MRE heaters also contain salt, magnesium (actually, it's probably mostly magnesium) and other elements. Seeing it torn opened at the end of the video, I'm thinking this is very different type of heater since it expanded and is light coloured, which is so different from heaters I've used.
Thanks for sharing the tea and honey drink. I love watching all your money saving tip but this food review was fun to watch.
Thank you!
Love this. Thank you for sharing.
Great product for camping.or.when skiing. When you are out doors and have cold, any thing that is high calories and hot tastes really good.
Beat the bush your content is awsome.👍 Never even knew a thing like that existed.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. =D
I'm watching this while trying the tomato flavor with sweet sausage! The one I'm eating is so yummy!
Yay we have hmart and 99 here in Houston! Excited!
Thank you so much! Your video was the best I found because you let us see exactly how much water to put!!!!!! I made mine and had it for dinner!!!
XIE XIE !!!!!!!
"hand warmer things"
Ah yes, blisters goes brrrrrr
Good review
This looks absolutely delicious!
I would not recommend it for taste. The meat are all preserved stuff so great if you're in the middle of no where.
Thank you man! You were a big help 😅
H Mart Vancouver BC had it on sale for 8.99 last weekend. Picked up 4 of these. Cant wait to try next weekend while social distance dinner-ing in our cars!
That looks good!
frugal man turns marmalade into a party drink while waiting for his self heating dinner to cook itself
Yep. That's what happened. =D
I can't stop laughing at this comment
I heard about these like 20 years ago that they were coming out!
Now i want to try it
We actually mix the tea in hot water and drink it in winter. Try, it's good in hot.
Interesting concept!!
=D
Awesome video!
I went to eat at Liuyishou Hot Pot after watching this video.
The spiciest version is definitely SPICY (makes me cough too)!
Awesome food!
=D
This is very cool. I will get a few of these and keep it in my car for emergencies
Maybe MREs are better for emergencies? I suppose this is similar but it needs more water.
I love that Korean Citron stuff! They definitely mark that up in cafes even though it’s so affordable from supermarkets.
I was gonna do it totally wrong. Hopefully I would love my first indoor hotpot after high energy day
That looked tasty...except for the mystery chemical reaction, but I’m glad you enjoyed it!
The packet is most likely some quicklime.
Ive had this exact hot pot and i literally couldnt finish it cause of how spicy it was haha if your spice tolerance isnt high id recommend not putting in the full spice package
There's a tomato version of that brand which is pretty mild if you dom have the best spice tolerance
I love all your videos and I taught it comes with shrimp I will try the package of noodles
Ha....Really fun to watch. Thanks BTB.
:D
I want to definitely try it! Unfortunately when I go to the Amazon link you provide they are currently all out of the beef spicy flavor that you were eating... but maybe I'll just get the vegetable one. But it does look good and I love spicy!😁
You might have to try your local Ranch 99 or H-Mart if you live in the bay area? I think this spicy is too spicy and would rather have maybe the pork one.
How exciting! 🥘💜
I know right? Interesting.
That was definitely novel. Don't think I will try it though as I am a bit concerned about all the plastic....
Same here.
Good video. The heating packet looks like quicklime (calcium oxide). Military MRE heater is diff.
Thanks for the detailed review. I've been down an instant noodle rabbit hole this weekend and this was interesting. BTW the amount of sodium in this is epic. It's literally like 300-400% of the daily recommended amount. Novelty indeed! Hey there i also a vegetarian version of this.
Expensive but good to have on hand for hurricane season.
Gonna try this !
=D
@@BeatTheBush I tried just now. Not bad.
This is cool!
Fun to see it in action.
Damn this is a lot of plastic. I'm always very sceptical when it comes to plastic near my food.
I'll always put instant meals in glass containers/regular plate before putting it into the microwave
Still very interesting to see how far we've come, having fresh food that stays eatable for a long time ready to be eaten hot all in one container
It's fine if its BPA free, even products with bpa can still be used causing little to no harm.
@@poppyssad6545 I recently got a bpa free water bottle. Washed it several times for the past few weeks, everytime I open it up, it has a strong chemical smell coming out
Bro, agree watch "cooking with Jack show lazy man omelet" it's so cringe
Relax the food we eat is already killing us. Thanks to the government
Plastic isn't good for heath. Especially when it's heated up with food in it & toxics coming from it
I always personally thought Yuzu tasted like a cross between lemon and grapefruit, personally. You could actually get a Yuzu tree where you live, they're actually one of the most cold hearty citrus fruits. I bought a tree for $40 or so, but it died I think because I used the wrong fertilizer. They have actually some of the craziest spikes on their branches, too. Actual Yuzu fruits are stupid expensive, though maybe on the West Coast they're cheaper, I think they're $4-5 each.
I really like the sound of the packages moving
ASMR like?
It’s also sold on amazon it’s $15.00 there I’m tempted I might just buy it to give it a try
Reminds me of MREs when I do my army training
They use the heater in army food?
BTB, I could never try or eat this. The spicy hotness would kill me. I have a friend i will reccommend this video to. He will probably seek this out. Really cool device. The drink looks pretty darned tasty.
Cheers.
Just gotta put less hot sauce seasoning.
I've just got one and am waiting for some dumplings to defrost to go with it.
Tried your drink recipe, it tasted so good! Over here, it cost $12 USD for a drink like this in restaurants lol!
$12? That's like in Hawaii... I'm glad you liked it! Try strawberry preserves in it as well, tastes great! Get the one without preservatives nor HFCS
@@BeatTheBush Sadly I bought the one with HFCS awhile back.
oh cool! remind me of those DIY japanese snacks. Very gimmicky for what it is, but what an experience. Thanks for the video! makes me wonder what the hotpot king (mikey chen) would thing of this product
It's fun... for once. =D
Kodos For Sharing. Would buy a bunch for the coming apocalypses.
Spice was put on everything not just the noodles but the only time you cough is when you slurp the noodles.
If you eat the noodles the same way you eat the rest of it, it will still be spicy but you won't cough.
I wonder if you could make a DIY heating element like that with either cement or plaster of Paris. The reaction seems slightly similar to that, actually. If you use a rapid set cement or plaster, you'll notice it gets really hot when it's setting. Even when I used rapid set tile mortar, it made the tiles warm/slightly hot to the touch. Baking soda or calcium chloride can be used to make Portland cement based things set off faster, but usually it's 2% of the actual mix or so. I wonder what would happen if you made something like 1/3 or 1/2 and half. It might actually turn out as weak and crumbly as that heating pad, but maybe release a lot of heat? I think for a plaster of Paris based thing, you'd use alum as a catalyst to make it set.
I'm no chemist but I'm hoping the heating chemicals are probably filtered with the bag. That's why they want you to check there are no holes so the powder doesn't leak out and into your food. The resulting steam was indeed clear at the end.
The heating element is like the military MRE’s, on those it specifically says not to have your food directly in contact with it cause it is radioactive. I wonder if it’s the same type of thing?
Radioactive? You mean it's not edible. Radioactive will emit high energy particles.
@@BeatTheBush alpha + beta radiation = particles, gamma radiation = waves
But the heating element in the MRE's is that we have to crushed it to activate the heat. This one reacts with water and cause a massive steam in heating the soup
Never seen or herd that a FRH gives off radiation. I have cases of them no where does it say that?????. They are water activated as well.
You mean a chemical reaction? It is like saying them hot hands are radioactive.
Delicious👍
Man, I really love Yuzu jelly. I usually make it by melting about an inch of water in a glass in the microwave to help dissolve it, though. I really should buy more of that jelly, I used to drink it all the time, but haven't drank it in a year or so. :( I had a friend who was really skeptical about trying it when I offered him something to drink and all I had was that, but he ended up really liking it. Now my big somewhat healthier drink is just cold brewed green tea, usually 8 teabags of Dollar Tree green tea and 2 tablespoons of sugar per 1.5L pitcher. Also very frugal. Homemade drinks are a lot better now with a DIY filtered water spout, I bought a spout for $20 and use a $10 ice maker filter (rated as high as a Brita per ANSI) with quick connect lines to 1/4" plastic ice maker tubing. Very nice and easy to set up. Hardest part was needing a carbide bit to drill through the stainless sink, though.
I'd say nuke the water first then add the jelly so you wont cook the honey or yuzu too much keeping more of the nutrients. Have warm water rather than very hot to do the melting. Yeah, this Yuzu drink is expensive if you compare it to just tea. It's like a special drink for special occasions.
@@BeatTheBush Yeah, that's what I did. 30 seconds with just the water to melt it. I've done it with seltzer before too, but I didn't even realize restaurants sold it, I just kind of winged it. My price on the East Coast is about $8-9 a jar, so...
The white vegetable is lotus root! 😻
For spicy level, I will only put half package of the chili powder
this actually had other brand with other flavor, but self heating food are really convenient on most way.
Nice innovation. It produces far too much plastic waste. But it was worth a try. The process is interesting and the quality of the vegetables is very good. There is just one problem, it was spicy as hell 🥵
Thanks for the video, am thinking to get one, so I search here. You seems to cough at each bite 😂.
The Citroen tea, I like it with hot water 😋
Toooooo spicy!!!!!
Honey ginger with hot water will help when u r sick
not a chemistry person but i'm guessing the stuff in the heating pack is something like calcium oxide, which reacts water and produce calcium hydroxide + heat
The warmer appears to be similar in function to the heater provided with MREs. If so, keep it away from open flames.
If memory serves it gives off hydrogen gas as a byproduct.
It's fun once. Maybe better if going camping?
Hey BTB,
Happy New Year! What a nice way to begin my New Year with you! Learning of some new food item gadget...I won't be purchasing it...not certain about the sodium levels? As well as going through the comments, someone mentioned radio active and military in the same sentence....and it's 12 dollars....like Ariana Grande said in her song, Thankyou, Next!...Hope U have the best year ever, Be Good and Peace, cuz there's nothing in the world quite like it, especially now-with Iran and All!☆★☆★♡♡♡♡★☆♥
Sodium is very high. Processed meats is bad for you. Yeah... this Iran thing is troubling. Hope both parties just does nothing from this point and have it fizzle out.
You sold me! I’m down to try it! It’s more similar to what Boiling Point serves. The only hot pot place I like is Kingswood. Not a fan of cooking my meat in herbs like Little Sheep. I feel like I’m eating Chinese herbal medicine.
I did? Many people do not like the heat and plastic mix.
BeatTheBush ha ha yeah you influenced me to. I don’t care about the heat and plastic. I can bring it to work or use it on my road trip or camping trip.
there’s different versions of hot pot. there’s the one where u dip everything in and one where it comes w everything in it and the heat source stays on the whole time
Calcium carbide reacts to water and produces acetylene gas. We used to play bamboo cannon when we were kids, we put a little of this and when ignited it creates an explosion.
This appears to be 95% magnesium and 5% iron.
I bought this but I will definitely use a different spice packet, like one of my maruchan ones because it looks like I won't be able to handle this spice.
You could skim off the oil to reduce the heat.
Going to pass on that instant hotpot. Ill stick to doing it the long way, lol. I am very interested in that drink though.
did u use hot or room temperature water to cook this?
What happens if i overfilled the black bowl to the top basically and the two waters mixed
I can go to my closest pho place and get twice, if not more food for 9 bucks. Glad you showed us this:)
Noooo! Melt the Yuja in hot water first then add ice.
I would get this, but my mom is being very strict about plastic uses
Good idea. I might have cut 5 years off my life eating this.
Lol it said close quickly for a reason!
All that one time use plastics is really bad for the environment!
Yeah, I thought the same when opening it all up. But I'm hoping people wont try this after they see all this stuff inside and doesn't need to try it themselves.
The chopsticks were pretty cool
#firstworldproblems
Who cares
@@TechExploresNYC Yeah, that's something I noticed. Only privileged people seem to care about 'omg plastic bad' for some reason.
still trying to figure out a new ninja foodi i bought a few days ago. haven't even tried to plug it in yet.
That looked greasy and spicy. Happy you enjoyed it.
It was and not good to eat more than once, lol.
I just saw this noodles today at 711 Taiwan, and search for it how does self heating hot pot works. 😅👍🏼
I was expecting a big price , bro we pay 11 for coffee lol ,ima be moving from Ireland soon hahah
you can get these easily in ireland?
What I want to know about is the smell. It looks delicious and I want to try it, but I don’t want to evacuate the break room at work lmao. Should I just stick to eating this at home?
I wouldn't eat it indoors at work. It steams so the aroma is too much.
Francis, I'm a foreigner in the bay, but the hair salon lady says all services are tipped here. Is that true? She told me to tip $10 today.
oh, n because of your milk tea videos I bought red tea + soy milk at 99 Ranch instead of stopping for boba XD
Also the lemon yuzu was v popular when i was walking around HK last yr. Almost every Watson had one at the front of the store. Now I have to go try it!
Yes, I usually tip if I go to a hair salon. Not $10 though... I think 15% is standard. Soy milk at a store contains all kinds of additives so try make your own almond milk if you have time with raw almonds.
That's like astronauts' food :)
I bet they don't allow this hazard on a spaceship.
The one we made today was the same as this but it was in chinese.
This was cool but was wondering how poisonous the aluminum in the heating bag is. It's expensive but really neat.
I suppose the bag only gives off edible contents and has been deems safe for food usage like in MREs. You're not suppose to eat the bag but I bet some liquified aluminum particles could flow out with the steam in ppb quantities.
how much water should we add? my package comes with water. but I think I need to use that all for the rice.
Does the heating bag need to sink in water or just get wet?
Add to the line. It sucks up all the water.
Find the manufacturer and we can use the technology in packets to instance heat up pools
Perhaps but the packs are too expensive to use.
I was going to get this one but instead got another brand. The package was smaller and cheaper.
SteveMRE1989 will like this. You should do more taste testing videos.
Hey Mr. Bush. Will you do more reaction videos on extreme cheapskates?
Yes. I'll get to it soon.
Would you guys happen to know if where is expiry date written on the packaging of Hai Di Lao?
Hmmm, I think there is one but then I don't have one at hand to double check. It's pretty long since everything is preserved.
can anyone tell me if the heat pack is reusable?
