FAQs
What does the 'Biobased' material mean?
Biobased plastics are derived from renewable resources, such as plant-based materials, rather than petroleum. This makes the product more environmentally sustainable.
Can I cook food directly in the Mealkit components?
The Mealkit components are microwave-safe for reheating food, but they are not designed for direct cooking on stovetops or in ovens.
How many people is this kit designed for?
The Light My Fire Mealkit is designed primarily for one person, offering a complete set of eating utensils and containers for a single meal.
Is the harness essential for carrying?
The harness is highly recommended as it keeps all the nested components securely together, preventing them from separating during transport and making it easier to carry.
What is the Spork?
The Spork is an ingenious utensil that combines the functions of a spoon, fork, and knife into a single piece, allowing you to eat efficiently without needing multiple utensils.
Are the SnapBoxes truly waterproof?
Yes, the SnapBoxes feature tight-fitting snap-lock lids designed to be waterproof, preventing leaks and keeping contents secure during transit.
What is the capacity of the bowl and lid?
The deep bottomed bowl has a capacity of 900 ml, and the lid, which functions as a plate, has a capacity of 500 ml.
Troubleshooting
Components don't nest properly
Ensure all components are clean and dry. Check for any debris or damage that might be preventing them from fitting flushly. Make sure the Pack-up-Cup is fully collapsed.
SnapBox lids are difficult to close
Ensure the lid and the container rim are clean and free of food particles. Push down firmly and evenly around the entire edge of the lid to create a secure seal.
Plastic has a slight odor
Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water and allow to air dry in a well-ventilated area. The biobased plastic may retain a slight scent, which typically dissipates with use and cleaning.
Pack-up-Cup doesn't stay expanded
Ensure the cup is opened smoothly and the silicone band is correctly aligned. If it repeatedly collapses, check the silicone band for damage or wear.
