The 'Bear Bowl' Folds Down to Fit in a Pocket for Cooking Whenever Needed

— May 10, 2017 — Art & Design
Traditional cooking equipment is associated with being somewhat rigid and inflexible, but the 'Bear Bowl' cook pot aims to change this with a design that's intended to be completely folded down. The 'Bear Bowl' is purported to be the world's first full cooking pot that can be stored in your pocket and still being able to be used for cooking a wide variety of foods.

The 'Bear Bowl' is lightweight in construction and capable of holding up to 32 ounces of water; this can be used for cooking foods or boiling water in order to make it potable, among many other capabilities. The 'Bear Bowl' cook pot is crafted from PTFE coated fiberglass and can be used as an option when camping or as a piece of emergency equipment.
Trend Themes
