Origami Dishes

I recently made my greatest purchase ever...er, this week at least.  I was wandering around REI looking for last minute gear for my Labor Day backpacking trip in Lassen National Park (bug spray, croakie, shades), and clearly with food on my mind found these amazing dishes by Fozzils! 

They start flat and fold to a cup, bowl, plate and spoon, secured by little snap buttons.  They are ultra light weight, multi purpose, easy to clean, pack away flat, and sturdy.  Also make great cutting boards and prep surfaces when preparing dinner on the forest floor.  I mean, come on, what more could you ask for. 
They come in neon, if you opt for the cheaper, kids set with barely smaller dishes for $14.  Adult colors and sizes available for $5 more, but what fun is that.
My absolute favorite part about these guys is that I can discretely carry them around the city and can avoid using disposable dishes and utensils all over town.  With impulses for street food like mine, this will probably save tons of trees and petroleum for plastics.  YAY!
