Say hi to my new bowl-to-go. This is aladdin insulated bowl with lid, artist series collection. The lid cover was designed by Amy Ruppel. Well, I personally like the colour.
I've been waiting to have this for quite some time. This particular design was actually from 2009 ! Well, I can't remember since when I have spotted this in local Ace Hardware. But it's currently on sale with special price. So I better grab it before it's too late.
Some highlights from this product include dishwasher safe (don't have one), easy-grip lid (okay..), no spills (good to know), cool-touch exterior (even with hot content? that's nice), and microwave safe (don't think I will do it anyway).
I'm a person who thinks the non-ceramic or non-glass ware shouldn't ever put into a microwave. The heat will detoriate the product or at least there'll be chemical reaction or some sort. Well, I have tried it once (using product from different brand), and the food smell funny.. plus a smell of burnt plastic. Perhaps I set the temp too high. Anyway, I better find a ceramic plate or bowl for microwave reheating.
Back to this Aladdin bowl. I will use it as a lunch box for salad or noodle soup. If I took a salad, I will need seperate mini container for the dressing. See ya after Ramadan.
