SIA New Food Box Can Prevent Spills from Soup; Perfect for Food Delivery

When you call for food delivery, chances are, you’ll probably give soup dishes a miss.

After all, the chances of the soup spilling out of the container and making your meal a messy affair are as high as Joseph Schooling entering Olympics 2020. It’s almost a guarantee.

But what if I were to tell you that out there in Singapore, there’s one company which came up with a solution to this problem?

A solution that could be lauded for years to come by Mee Hoon Kuey or Kway Chap lovers?

A solution that came from a company that’s usually high up above others?

SIA New Food Box Can Prevent Spills from Soup; Perfect for Food Delivery

These are SIA’s latest food boxes.

An environmentally-friendly food box, don’t be fooled by its normal appearance.

In a Facebook post, Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung revealed how he was invited up to SIA’s office to try out their new offering and was served the food in these boxes.

He was told that the boxes would be used to contain “hot soup, mee siam, laksa” and more.

“Once a box is closed, it does not leak.”

Basically, he said, soup items aren’t a problem for them.

Experiment

Curious, he decided to try out its “unspillable” function for himself.

He turned the box upside down a few times and when he opened up the box, the hot congee remained safe and sound in its container.

Magic.

Not For Delivery…Sadly

As Mr Ong’s Facebook post revealed, the new food containers are perfect for food delivery, but that’s not what they’ll be used for.

The food containers are used for SIA’s new menu offerings, which will be launched on 21 Nov 2020 and available on selected short-haul flights from 1 Dec 2020.

But hey, maybe SIA could sell these containers to food delivery companies. After all, they’re also trying to diversify their business revenue right now, no? #AManCanAlwaysHope

Speaking of flights, here are a few other countries that travel experts in Singapore are saying could be the next one to have a travel bubble with Singapore.

Some notable names on the list include South Korea, Japan and Taiwan.

Although chances are, even if they start now, most can only travel in 2021. Just look at what’s been happening to the Hong Kong-Singapore Air Travel Bubble.
