One of our gear reviewers commented “Dude, there are some seriously smart engineers out there to be coming up with things like this.” I agree. So, if Origami art and a backpacking mug got married, this is what their wittle baby would wook wike. Orikaso has a few different versions of the flatware. You can buy each item individually or as a set. They sell a Solo Set, which contains a bowl, mug, and dinner plate. They also sell a dinner for two set which has two of each item. You can get them in multiple colors. Orikaso sent us a blue, red, and green. But as seen here, they have yellow as well. These things fold flat, seriously flat. They are about as thick as 5-10 sheets of paper. Made of a very sturdy plastic they would be difficult to rip or crack. Here’s a breakdown of each item. The Bowl - The bowl was deep, and held oatmeal well. Heat transferred through it well though, so make sure and grab a towel if you are eating piping hot foods. The bowl would be good for large quantities of spaghetti or other one-dish meals. The Mug - The mug has measurements on the side so you can measure your quantities. It holds a cup of coffee, tea, or other hot liquid well. The mug is the only item that took a minute to fold together. It was the first time some of the testers had looked a it, but without looking at instructions they did get it together. The handle doesn’t look sturdy from the pictures, but it actually holds very well. The Plate - The plate was wide and the sides fold up to hold items on the plate. It was large enough for a large meal. Bottom line - Orikaso gets an A. Even if you have room in your pack for bulkier items, these are still just about as good as a regular bowl, mug, and the plate definitely is. They are light weight (5 oz. for the solo set). And, they can just slip down into a backpack or dry bag with ease. They are a lightweighter’s dream. The clean up is easy, just wipe with a paper towel. Good stuff. Comments
