I got some in Savannah before I had my radiation treatments; tthey were
great in that I didn't have to worry about cleaning them up when I
wasn't feeling too great. Looked for some here a couple of years ago
when I did the meals for my folks but only found a 9x9 casserole size. I
had a few of the others on hand so used them. I've not seen any others
(well, not looked too hard but will start looking) but would like to
find individual pie pans.

OK, I'll check them out. I don't want another unitasker small appliance
tho.

Didn't know that; the disposable stuff I used before was a pressed paper
product with some sort of smooth coating. That's easy to find/try.

I've got a vaccuum sealer; if I double the bowls (for strength), that
should do the job.

MIght be too hot here in NC by week's end, supposed to get near 80
again. But it won't last--yet. All too soon tho, we'll be in the midst
of another hot & humid summer.

I'm going to check these folks out.
