It's light and useful. - Trangia Mess Tins

Good gear for camping and it is a really nice cookware. Light weight and useful; can be multiple way to use, especially for cooking rice.
It helps a lot. Inside, it holds a chafing fuel can, a stove ring, a spoon and a case of matches, with room to spare for other extras. See my photo showing the mess tin with its contents. It wouldn't be my first choice for a cook set, but if you're looking for something more durable than a beer can, lighter than stainless steel, and cheaper than titanium, then this fits the bill nicely.
