Review on 🚰 EllO Cole Stainless Steel Water Bottle - Vacuum Insulated with Slider Lid by Kelly Slevira

This was delivered a long time ago, just in time for last season so I forgot to leave a review but I think it still deserves attention. Looks cute, just like the pictures! When I buy travel mugs, however, I usually prefer that they come empty so I can add my own substances (usually drinkable) inside, and this is the boxed Ello Cole Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Travel Mug, Gray, 16 Ounce, Unspecified. When I received it I found it contained what appeared to be dog food or maybe chili peppers and it was all in the lid mechanism. While I appreciate the snack they included for free, as well as the thoroughness with which the chilli dog food went into the lid, I'm a vegetarian and have no interest in eating it (or actually cleaning it - the smell and the mystique made me want to seal the mug immediately after taking the picture). I appreciate the product's water resistance: the cup's contents were safely hidden upon arrival, only giving them away with a soft squeeze. I couldn't bring myself to throw it away or reopen it, so it's been marinating in my dorm for 2 months. I cannot vouch for the substance being gluten and dairy free (although I believe it does contain meat). Free in a good house.
