There was a thread on this several days ago. I think Flax or Buckwheat is used in a lot of these. You can also use rice but it stinks and doesn't hold the heat very long.
Just did a quick search in QB and found this link. But if you search there are lots of posts.

Sounds like a wheat pack to me. Is a tater bag to keep the potato hot or just to cook it in. I've seen buckwheat mentioned on a couple of sites. DD filled some with rice when they made them for school fete. I have a couple and as Glassquilt said they feel so good.
