Does anyone have any suggestions for other kinds of stuffing to put in feet or neck warmers that are inexpensive but not food? I have made them with rice, but I would like a food alternative.

Thanks!

A friend of mine used cherry stones. She bought a huge bag from someone on the internet.

I'm not sure if you're looking for food items or non-food items. This site gives a bunch of different options - http://tipnut.com/make-your-own-microwave-heating-pad/

Are you like me? totally fearful that a mouse in the house might decide you'd prepared their Christmas dinner!!

Years ago, I had one of those bags, and when I went to use it one day........... yup! NEVER again!

I think the plastic pellets used in cloth dolls and animals would work. They can be heated without fear of melting.

Some people use flax and have lavender scent added for relaxation.

Further to my earlier post ... any grain would still be an attraction to mice!

Would Insulbright work? The fabric used in heat resistant pot holders and hot pads?

Possibly fish tank gravel?

Insul Bright can not be put in the microwave. There is metal in the fabric.
