I bought this bowl and spoon set for every day use. When it arrived I was surprised how thin and flimsy the plastic was. It's basically the same as the throw away kind. The spoon looks like it could be from your local fast food restaurant. We've used it a lot however as the kids like the design. I won't be surprised when the picture peels off. It was on a good special price however, and can be used in the microwave.
