I'm excited to try out a thermal cooker

For some stupid inexplicable reason I thought “thermal cooker” mean “solar cooker” – and none of this made a bit of sense. After googling it all, I see that a “thermal cooker” is basically the generic name for “really good Thermos” – such that the food will keep “cooking” because of all the insulation – basically the food can’t get cold and if it can’t get cold that means it’s still cooking.

Car camping I could see – backpacking not so much really, unless the cooker itself is lightweight (unlikely). It’d be need to start your chill at home … through it in this thing. And then when you get to where you’re going just open this thing up and eat your chili all nice and hot. Certainly not something that is needed but I can see the appeal.
