9A- Testing the Hypothesis, Part 2

Who: After doing my interviews, I have found people outside of my boundaries. One person I interviewed with works strictly indoors and has a break room refrigerator that keeps his food cold throughout the day. Another interviewee is a stay at home mother that packs her kids’ lunches. She does not have to worry about her lunch since she has a refrigerator at home, but sometimes her kids’ lunches don’t stay cold all day. One kid does track, and he needs more ice packs to keep his snacks/water cold during the summertime. I interviewed a lady for my third interview, and she works completely indoors. She said that her ice packs do the trick for keeping her food cold. In my fourth interview, I interviewed a middle-aged guy who works outside. He said that he never packs a lunch. He usually goes to the gas station and gets snacks and drinks. Sometimes, he goes to a fast food joint. The last person I interviewed works indoors and she usually brings her lunch and uses her mini fridge to keep her lunch cold in her office.
What: My last interview mentioned that she takes out pre-packaged meals from the fridge and heats them up in the microwave. Food cannot be heated up in a cooler.
Why:I do not believe the need is different. Everyone needs somewhere to keep their food cold whether indoors or outside. 

Inside the Boundary                                    Outside the Boundary
Who                               People who work outside or                          People that go out to
                                       indoors that packs their lunch                       eat instead of bringing
                                       and has no access to a fridge.                      a lunch.
  
                                       School Kids.                                                  People that pack non-                       
                                                                                                             refrigerated items.
                                                                                                             
                                       People who camp or hike.

What                              To keep food and drinks cold                         Foods that need to be
                                       for long periods of time.                                 heated up.
                                                         
                                                                                                              Foods that can’t be
                                                                                                              cold.

Why:   Some foods have to be refrigerated or they go bad. Spoiled foods can get someone          
            sick.
            
            People who work outside need cold drinks and food to be able to cool their overall      
            body temperature down. 
            
            People won’t have to worry about finding or having a cold drink.
