After hot pot became a snack, instant hot pot became a new star in the hot pot world. Judging from the current comments, hot pot launched by hot pot brand chain stores is more popular among consumers such as Xiaolongkan and Dalong. The birth of self-heating pot has internal driving force. Hotpot restaurant is a profitable catering industry, but compared with the old fast food such as instant noodles, there is still a big gap in hygiene and management, and it is still very immature to attack the instant noodle market.

Self-heating pots first appeared in micro-enterprises and are attracting more and more catering and food companies. From the base of hot pot to hot pot chain stores, many companies have started small hot pot business. Even a good snack bar recently sold its own hot pot in its Tmall flagship store.

as the name implies, the automatic heating pot does not need to be plugged in. It consists of two layers of plastic boxes, the top layer is the bottom layer of materials and food, and the bottom layer is the heating packaging. When eating, pour a cup of cold water into the lower plastic box where the heating bag is placed, and then wait for 15 minutes to get a bowl of hot pot. In addition to self-heating pot, it is also called "micro pot", "transparent pot" and "self-cooking pot".

Hotpot sold by Hehe also faces its own problems. The entry threshold of this innovative entry-level product is very low, and it has encountered many negative comments, such as ingredient deterioration and packaging explosion. In July this year, Chengdu Food and Drug Administration also issued an announcement (draft for comments) on the public application for the "Chengdu Self-heating Instant Hot Pot Production License Examination Scheme (Trial)" to standardize the convenience of Chengdu hot pot production license activities. And strengthen the quality and safety monitoring of hot pot. From production to sales, from the region to the whole country, self-heating hot pot can be fully developed, but it still needs the production and market access standards applicable to the national level to sell well.
