The Delta Bowl is lightweight, easy to clean and the thumb grip on the side allows you to easily hold the bowl in one hand and eat with the other. The base uses the patented Protex hex pattern, which cuts down weight and also helps disperse surface temperature. The lid forms a neat press fit over the bowl, which can also double as an additional plate or food preparation surface. With specifically designed steep side walls, you won't slop your dinner or soup over the top.
