[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s really fine. That’s sort of the whole point of a Thermos. Don’t overthink it.[/quote] If you put it in hot in a good container, it will be hot at lunch time. For extra insurance, fill the container with hot water first. From the US Department of Agriculture: "For hot foods, use an insulated container to keep food like soup, chili, and stew hot. Fill the container with boiling water, let stand for a few minutes, empty, and then pour in the piping hot food. Keep the insulated container closed until lunchtime to keep the food hot — 140 F or above." https://www.usda.gov/media/press-releases/2023/07/17/dont-flunk-food-safety-school-year[/quote]
