I work from home and drink from mugs and I don’t tiktok, so this whole trendy cup thing is really confusing me.
Do they uncurse bad water or something?

I got my last insulated cup from a hardware store. $7 and change.
No branding at all, just “insulated stainless steel cup”
It’s the best cup I’ve ever had, and I can’t even tell people what to look for because the packaging was generic black text on white cardboard, around the base of the cup for stability. That’s it.
It was basically xkcd’s Brand Identity https://xkcd.com/993/, in cup form.
I forgot I made some hot chocolate one night last week, and when I woke up in the morning, all I had to do was stir it to get the chocolate mixed up well, and it was still warm. Not hot mind you, but warm enough to get me to work. I’d say hot time is 2-4 hours. 5-6 if you slide the lid closed.
Now I want to run some temperature tests but I don’t have any temperature sensor and logging programs to do them though.
It’s kept ice for 24 hours. I dumped it so no idea how long it CAN hold ice.
Also I have no idea how these times compare to the expensive brands, since I’ve never owned one. They could be sub-par. But they’re infinitely better than the ceramic mugs or Styrofoam/plastic insulated cups I used before, so… Yeah. They’ve got that going for them. Which is nice.
There is a brand that basically does exactly what that xkcd comic is talking about.
I know it from Pick n’ Pay in South Africa but it seems Canada’s “no name” brand probably came first.
