Abstract: A smart package and/or a smart tag may be used for inductive heating. The inductive heating may comprise heating a food product, a beverage product, and/or any other substance. The smart package and/or tag may comprise at least one of: an antenna (e.g., for radio frequency communications), a communication module (e.g., for communicating information relating to inductive heating), and/or an inductive receptor (e.g., for transferring heat to a substance). The inductive receptor may be configured to avoid/minimize contact and/or to avoid/minimize interference with the communication module and/or with the antenna, which may provide various advantages as described herein.
