If you are going camping or hiking, you gotta eat! Cookware and silverware for camping and hiking is one of the things that should be brought along in a Backpack Mess Kit. There are several really good options available to keep your hunger away when you head out into the woods.

These handy cooking wares have been used for many years in the military. The military types are extremely small and compact. They are also extremely versatile, but somewhat limited. Most often, the lid is used for several different tasks.

A Backpack Mess Kit is also very compact and lightweight. Many items serve multiple purposes (similar to the military style). If you’re only planning a picnic, and not actually hiking, there are even Picnic Packs that can carry all of the utensils and cookware as well as the foodstuff very nicely. These are even good on a hike if it is just a day hike.
