[pct-l] Best trail bowl... Ever (was 3L soda bottles)
Hey, Dave -
The rice bowl bowls are great for nesting; yogurt cups are great for
cocktails ;-) (our definite rebellion against ultralight weeniness and the
anti-alcohol crowd....don't burn what you can drink!)
But we've done our share of eating out of the pot, too...when we're simply
rehydrating something, we use a Gatorade jar or the plastic bag from the
freeze-dried or dehydrated/instant glop, then the pot's only used for
boiling water. Stays cleaner that way, and no cooked stuff to scrape from
the bottom of the pan. The jar can float inside the pot of simmering water,
and acts like a double boiler.

Very true. But sometimes I like to have soup with my dinner, and my cup is
full of something already ( coffee, tea or milk), so a light weight bowl
would be nice to pour the soup into while I cook the main course in the same
pot. If I use the pot as a bowl, I have to dirty up another pot to cook the
main course. Maybe a yogurt cup would work too.. Now if I could get two
lightweight nestling cups/bowls that hold 10 and 12 ounces and fit into my
1.5 qt. pan
Man, gotta finish them taxes. I hate this time of year - no not Spring -
tax
day!
