These bowls are large enough for very generous servings of stew, soup, pasta, rice and beans or combination bowls of Mexican foods, salads with chicken and meats, nachos with cheese and meats, French fries, steak fries, breakfast combos, and etc.Very sturdy and well insulated with a rolled rim and bottom rim so they can be hand held even with hot foods inside.They make cleanup after a gathering easy and efficient and the price is excellent.They can even be used for BRIEF reheating in the microwaSee full review
