Isn't the point of a thermos to put "perishable and fermenting foods" in it, like coffee or tea? Like this could totally have been me, like make a thermos-full

Isn't the point of a thermos to put "perishable and fermenting foods" in it, like coffee or tea? Like this could totally have been me, like make a thermos-full of coffee one day, then forget about it only to come back to in some weeks just to open it and have one of my eyes blown off
- rimliu 5mo agogood luck of anything fermenting after dousing with boiling water..
- IAmBroom 5mo agoDousing with boiling water does not sterilize things. Fermentation is still possible. Likely, even, if slower to start.
- triceratops 5mo agoYou ferment coffee? Tea I can understand if you're making kombucha, but coffee?
- iammjm 5mo agonot on purpose, I just forget stuff until they rot
- triceratops 5mo agoLol. If I forget food in a container and expect that it's rotted, I'm holding it well away from my face when I open it.
- IAmBroom 5mo agoIf you expect that it's rotted, you haven't really forgotten it. That's the whole point: they expected empty containers. Which could happen to you, being (presumably) a human.
- triceratops 5mo agoI can tell from the weight and feel of the container if it's empty.
- mark-r 5mo agoThermos bottles are relatively heavier to their contents than flimsier bottles. That goes double if they're only half full. I have a couple of the recalled bottles, so I just weighed one - 14 ounces empty.
