Does anyone know a good kind of glove to use to eat a greasy sandwich *outside* a restaurant? (SUCH IS MY WONT ;-))
Or maybe there is a gadget-based solution (perhaps Giz Wiz Dick DeBartolo would know). I'm thinking that one might
be able to use the awesome power of LITHIUM BATTERIES.

Given that you only really need to be warmed on the hands and head, perhaps some heating bracelets and necklace
would work -- you just turn it on after you've received your food. To be extra-efficient, just incorporate some micro-fans
to direct the warmed air towards the hand or face. I imagine someone thought about this sort of thing long ago,
but maybe the technology is now up to the challenge.

I was in Munich in December 2001 and wandered around their Christmas Market at Marienplatz, which had over 100 different food booths and tables and chairs. Outside. In December.

I remember eating a bratwurst on a hot dog bun while standing outside at a table in a light snow and sub-freezing weather. I didn't want to sit down on a metal bench to avoid freezing another part of my anatomy. I don't recall being chilled. The bratwurst kept my hands warm, and I was wearing a hat.

Are you particularly susceptible to cold? Anyway, by going to amazon and searching for battery powered hand warmer, I came up with this: https://tinyurl.com/yyolwo6s
