Someone ake a couple of containers, one covered with black tape and the
other clear. Fill with water and place in the sun and see which gets
warmer after say an hour or two.<br>
Try covered with black netting like the pack pocket.<br>
Also my opinion is that if carried inside the pack there would be
little difference since all heat would come form conduction from the
rest of the pack contents.<br>

I would think that the black duct tape would absorb more heat from the
sun, so you'd end up with a warmer meal than without the tape. Passive
solar at work, no?<br>

black duct tape isn't necessary, unless it makes you feel
better. The food is reconstituted because of your movement and
time.... </blockquote>
