# Two-Faced Food Containers
Never Have Soggy Cereal Again With the Obol Bowl

I hate eating cereal fast just so that it doesn't end up soggy; so having said that, I wish I had the Obol bowl around the house.

The wonderfully designed Obol bowl has a divider in the middle that sections off the milk and the cereal so that it doesn't mix. Want to combine the two? Simply use your spoon and push your nutritious breakfast into the little pathway. So if you have to answer a call, go help mom change a lightbulb or whatever else, you can know that you can put down your bowl of cereal and not worry about it going soggy. You'll be getting fresh and crispy bites each time.

The Obol bowl is available for purchase at the company's online shop.
