Thumbs down Nescafe instant hot coffee or something much worse !!?

I saw this product the other day. It looks about the same size as a tin of coke, but is in fact "instant hot coffee". You just press the red button on the botton of the container, and instant hot coffee thanks to an exothermal reaction.

Fine on the ground, but what about activating it at altitude. Boiling point being a function of pressure etc etc.

Should this be allowed on board? What would happens if accidentally activated in the hold at altitude?

Worth a closer look perhaps?
