RE: [Philmont]: Personal eating bowls?

I'm with Fred, last summer all but 3 of us had the same bowl. On about day
3 we decided to have one person carry all the eatingware. This made life
much easier, all the bowls stacked together and took up less room. The crew
assigned to cooking didn't need to hunt for them, they just got put in with
all the other cooking stuff. Whatever you pick, have one person go purchase
enough for the crew and keep them together. Those with mugs instead of bowl
made life a bit more difficult, but we also kept them in the same bag.

We purchased 12 lexan bowls and 12 matching spoons and one dunk bag, and
carry our utensils and bowls as part of the crew gear. This works for us
and has several advantages. 1- the stuff is all together so it all makes it
to the cooks for nightly sterilization, 2 less likelly someone will put
somthing dirty in their pack, reudcing smellables fo rthe kids, and 3 since
all eating stuff is the same there is no fight when it is time to serve
dinner and no one is stepping over, in or around the cook area trying to
find their stuff. In additin since they are all the same size it is easier
to monitor the food intake of the picky eaters.

To each their own, but when we try this with our crews, they quickly adopt
it!
