    Wait, how does that work? It seems like it should take the same energy to melt it either way.

    presumably they mean using something besides your body heat to melt it

      Ah, I guess the way it was worded that could be it.

      I do know tucking some under your coat in a container is one thing you can do, if you’re in a desperate situation. At best that slows down the rate of heat loss, though.
