Product Review ~ Long Handled Lexan Spoon.

Alright, I admit it, I am both a gadget hound and lazy. Anything that will get me out of cleaning will light up my heart, especially on the trail. I just don't want to be bothered by it if I can get out of it! I've really come to appreciate freeze dried meals for their lightness and simplicity...but until now I had to dirty a dish or two for each meal. This long handled spoon just changed my life.

Ok, I might have exaggerated a bit, but really, this simple addition turned out to be a cool thing. It's long enough to reach into the bottom of a freeze dried meal, eliminating the need for dishes. I so far haven't melted it or broken it so that makes me happy and even though you can't tell in the photo it's a pretty shade of blue. The bowl is just the size I prefer and even though the food is very hot, it doesn't seem to retain the heat so I have yet to burn my mouth on it's surface.

I like this and it is a cheap addition to my camp kitchen, only two bucks at REI. I never knew I needed it til I got it and now you'll have to pry it out of my cold, dead hands to get it from me.

My long handle spoon is just the right size to scrape the bottom of a freeze dried meal. Copyright Marcia Mauskopf 2013
