I'm constantly adding ideas off this site to my disaster bag, actually bags. I have a couple old laptop bags and have some split by what might happen. I'm north of Seattle and aside from social upheavals, we have earthquakes, tidal waves and volcanos to worry about. So I have a food bag, medical kit, clothes duffel and general BOB.
Back to the point, aside from the aluminum mess kits, what's a good idea for adding something to cook in that doesn't weigh a lot? Where I have my food grab bag, I just keep an everyday pot an pan in the same cupboard to grab. It's getting to the point it's not a BOB anymore, more like Bob's luggage kit. I have kept it to with the guns and pets, 2 trips out to the truck.

I went to big 5 today and got a small stainless fry pan and pot with cup for $7. Couldn't find any made here, but haven't been to REI yet. I know cans themselves can be heated. I plan on keeping the 72 hr bag down to datrex, nothing that requires cooking. I like the tuna Mylar packs, too. For the longer term bag, I'll keep the set with the canned food bag and several sets of clothes. I guess it can't hurt to throw an iron pan in the truck, but I'll check out he titanium ones.

Yeah, I didn't think about boiling water. I think what I'll do is separate my stuff into 3 months duffel and 72 hour pack. If I have to leave, %95 of the time it will be in my 4x4 truck as I'm near Seattle by mountains. I have unused space under my truck seat that I may add in some heavy things.

There is always the possible need to boil water to sterilize it, or for a hot drink, or to cook something you've caught to supplement your food supplies...
