Wow....don't use a can as a pot. All Aluminum cans have a liner that will lift off can get in your food....with lots of BPA. Make sure you are using cans that don't have a liner.....and those are hard to find

We can't find the large-mouth 1 L Aquafina bottles anymore where I live (eastern Canada)... that sucks.

MMM Fat Tire! You must be from the mid-west! I went to a festival in Arkansas (Wakarusa) and had the pleasure of tasting it for the first time...I am a New Englander myself. Needless to say I was loving the Fat Tire! Delicious!

The coffee bag idea was new to me, thanks for that! Here is my gear rule: Cheap, Sturdy, or Lightweight - Pick two. All of these suggestions will work and are good for people starting out, students, etc. and they keep some trash out of the landfills. I think if you fell on your pack while hiking that you'd lose your coffee cup and beer can pot. It's excellent to know how to use these and they're great for easing someone in, but if you frequent the wilds you need sturdy gear, IMHO.

The scary thing is that the heaviest unneeded thing I carry is about 30 pounds of fat around my waist.... I'm hoping to cut my *total* pack weight once I trim my saddlebags.... (I'm figuring I can cut an ounce every mile I walk: 16 miles a day = 16 ounces a day = 1 lb of fat = 30 lbs of fat a month...). What a way to diet :-/
