A clever trick to keeping your takeout food warm while you drive home is divided

There’s nothing worse than coming home with your lunch and only to find out after the drive that it’s freezing.

But one fast-food lover claims to have the answer to the age-old dilemma of keeping food warm in the car.

The Redditer has divided opinion with his takeaway tip after sharing a video of his handy hack online.

He explained that those with heated seats in their vehicles could use them to keep their meal at a comfortable temperature.

The guy suggested just cranking up the function and putting your takeaway bag on top for a leisurely ride home.

The post was accompanied by a clip of him demonstrating his fast food hack with a brimming bag of McDonald’s treats.

The method has managed to spark a heated debate online as Reddit users digged into the transport technique.

Some couldn’t believe he assumed the majority of drivers had a car that came with the luxury of heated seats.

One wrote: “Is this some kind of rich hack I’m too poor to understand?”

Another said: “Yeah, what a smart little boy. My car’s heated seats are the sun.”

A third wrote: “Nice until that ketchup bursts or a poorly sealed greasy burger leaks through.”

And a fourth added: “Brave of you to assume I have a car with heated seats.”

But others were more accepting of the guy’s idea, though unsure if it could be executed properly.

One commented: “My Audi has heated seats but it takes some weight of the load to benefit from the heat d/t how the heater coils are placed.

“I don’t think this concept would work in my car!”

Another said: “I’ve found that putting the food on the floor and then cranking up the foot warming fans works better.”

A third wrote: “Heated seat owners here… yeah that doesn’t work really well, tried it.”

But one person insisted the grab-and-go tip succeeds in keeping your weekly treat warm.

They explained: “I do this all the time!

“I even used it to bring the butter I just bought to ‘room temperature’ so I could make cookies as soon as I got home instead of having to wait.”
