Would you use them only for pets? Just wanted to know if I can serve some cereal to my kids while traveling

Maybe if they had a smaller version you could use for cereal. They are are fairly deep and if you collapse tem a little there is a ridge. Might work.

I do not have children so I probably should not give opinion. REI has people ones though.

You can use it to serve cereal to your kids. Use cold milk. I don't think if the material is hard enough for hot or even warm liquids.

I would think they would work just fine :) they are super sturdy for what they are, may wiggle just a tad under his weight but I think they are good to well over 100 pounds. I've been super impressed with their durability! And they flatten out nicely for storage, you could keep them in the back during your trips!

No, actually, I am sure they are NOT acceptable for airline travel. They collapse for easy storage and to transport them without a dog, but they would not fit under any seat I've ever seen on a plane.

Not really...they are too big and shallow. I purchased the fruit bowls as well which are a nice shape but too small for cereal. This is an issue for this set. I ended up buying plain white cereal bowls and recently found blue ones to match the blue in the dishes. Love the pattern and would be happy if Caleca made cereal bowls for the North American market.

Being made for kids, they have proven very sturdy. I'm sure you could use them if you really want, but they don't hold much food (one small banana cube for example) at a time

It would depend on what you put in them. If you filled them I would think not. They are a bit hard to close and open so I would be careful with doing this for children depending on the age. I used these for charms that I was selling and can tell you they worked well for those but they do not hold a lot. They do not spread open much and do not hold any form of liquid. I would really recommend that you think about this twice especially if they are really young as I would worry about choking hazard.

Feed them bran cereal and some potato slices for water. The after a couple days put them in the refrigerator. That's what the seller told me.

Hi there, when I bought these trays I thought that I'd be able to place my dinner plates on them and eat off them. They are too small and don't hold dinner plates. If you a small breakfast cereal bowl - this will work, or perhaps to serve desserts on.

My kids love them! We got them in November, one passed away just yesterday, I think the other one was eating all the other ones food. Great kid Pet!!!!

I hadn't considered microwaving them. I would think that since there is some foil in their content, I would say it's not a good idea to microwave them. The bags are terrific, though. I use them every year for an annual cookout that I host. After putting the hotdogs in the buns and then in the bags, I put them into a huge covered steamer pan to keep the dogs warm and the buns soft. They are always a big hit.

I'm not sure I would use them for flour, etc, unless it was just storage for unopened bags. They are not air tight and don't really latch. But, that said, I use them for dog food that I have poured into the bins from the bag (so no longer in a bag). I have been using them about 3 months and have not had any issues with bugs or other critters in the dog food. There was only one instance when our puppy was able to get into one and that was because the scoop we use was preventing the lid from closing all the way.

I think it would not be a good idea for you to have them where your dog could have access. They are attractive to animals (for some reason) and your dog could choke on them. Wouldn't be worth it, I think.

these specifically say not for microwave on the bottoms. so while you could feasibly put hot stuff in them, if you microwave them, who knows what they are leaching out into your food. And I suspect they could crack or explode over time if you do microwave. anything that has "do not microwave" on it, I respect that.

Yes, these could be used for any kind of snack food. However, they work best for flat snacks and candy. For popcorn, I think you might be better off finding bags with a gusset (since these are no-gusset, they don't really "expand" well), because your guests may have trouble reaching into the bag or getting much popcorn into them.

I don't see why not--although they're not big--but weigh almost nothing. I keep them in my car for water for my dogs. I would also check collapsible bowls for humans.

I don't see why you couldn't use it for feeding, but I would not put them in the microwave!

Honestly I have never eaten one. I would only use these as a last resort in an emergency situation where I needed to be highly mobile. They will supply needed calories and I have been told they are not very palatable, but better than starving.
