Hi S/F13, I used to own a aluminum mess kit when I was a boy scouts about 33 years ago and they used to discolor all the time. Come to think of it, I hated that mess kit. No matter what I cooked in it it would stick and be a pain to clean. .

well, yer not supposed to cook in yer mess kit and yer not s'posed ta get yer yer meat where ya get yer bread , either.

Yes, Ti is the best (so far), but the point is cooking in yer plate.

You don't cook( or Sh**) where ya eat, ya don't get yer meat where ya get yer bread.

Nothing wrong with eating out of what you cook in, it reduces the amount of dishes you have to carry(as in extra weight, and unnecessary items). I am not sure where you heard this, but almost every hiker I have met cooks out of a pot, then eats in it. Every ounce counts.

Right, every ounce counts, so why a 'cooking thing'? I didn't 'hear' anything...I BTDT...There's so many other options... save the weight of a 'cooking thing'. I've boiled rice in bamboo.
