Leave it to the Japanese to make a kick-butt, eco-friendly, travel-size pack that has just about anything you need to eat without using all that plastic stuff while you're out and about (or even on vacation!) I was just talking to a friend of mine about the The lightweight (only 2 ounces!) set includes fork, spoon, chopsticks and carrying case, making it easy to eat on-the-go. The fork, spoon, and chopsticks snap into the bottom parts and voila! instant eating.
The set also comes with instructions in Japanese – not that you really need them since the utensils are really easy to put together. The ability of the set to be readily reusable means they're easily washable. And the sets come in many different colors – green, pink, blue, yellow, or orange.
With a bunch of birthdays coming up, I know the chopsticks are going to be super useful for friends of mine looking for an alternative to using plastic restaurant utensils. They've told me that there are even sushi restaurants who offer discounts to people who bring their own chopsticks, and these would be perfect for them!
