In fact, it may even be the perfect item to bring along with you while looking for Bigfoot. Yecup Technologies today announced the release of the Yecup 365, a temperature-adjustable mug capable of heating, cooling, and maintaining the temperature of its contents. Thanks to the company’s patented technology, boiling or cooling can be done within minutes, and a drink’s desired temperature can be held for hours.
