I was checking out the pots and pans in my local thrift store and came upon a stainless steel Mason jar. It was designed for drinks with a hole in the lid for a straw.
Rough specs: 4 ounces for the main pot plus 0.8 ounce for the lid and holds 30oz/888ml. That is the same weight as a Snowpeak 700 mug! It is about 5-3/4″ tall and 3-5/8″ diameter. The lid has a silicone seal.
I think it has about the same potential as the IMUSA mug and other “found” cook pots.This one was all of $1.99 and I found similar new ones on eBay for about $10. I need to find a rubber plug for that hole in the lid that can double as a knob. I see a cozy being made soon :)
They are sold in bulk by the same outfits that make promotional items. You could outfit a whole Scout troop for cheap.
