Can this bowl be used and held with hot food ie..soup, oatmeal etc?

I got this item for traveling for our dog, because it folds flat for the glove compartment etc. I think you could serve hot items in it with no problems, if camping for instance. But not boiling hot items.

It does get hot. If I heat soup in the bowls I need to use a pot holder and then put on sandwich plate until it cools off. If you have younger children who use microwave you might want to pass on these dishes. If will be used only by adults - then no problem with pot holders.

I've used these bowls in the microwave for short durations to warm up a served portion. I believe their company website says these bowls are microwave safe but not use it foods with a lot of oil which may leave a stain.

This would not be a problem. These are made of tempered glass, like Pyrex, and can handle quick temperature changes, in my experience. Barring a particularly faulty bowl, this would not be an issue.

I wouldn't cook the soup in it- not a crock pot type warmer. It does heat up soup to an almost boil, but not for that intention I don't believe. Great for keeping hot.

I love these bowls for cereal, snacks, fruit etc. but I do not use them or anything plastic for soup or hot foods.

It would be great for serving a side dish. I think the shape would make it difficult to eat soup from.

I'm sure it would work just fine. If the rice has microwave directions then just follow them and use this bowl. These are amazing bowls. I have one and ordered more. The outer part does not get hot at all. Now they even come with lids. My first one didn't.

I love these Tritan bowls. They are clear, tough, look great and go through the dishwasher time after time and come out looking good. However, I don't think that these are made for hot soup temperatures. I haven't tried it however, so . . . .

I use them frequently to make hot oatmeal in the microwave. The handle warms a bit, but the bowl can be hand-held by its handle though care must be exercised not to touch the bottom of the bowl unless one uses a napkin or small cloth. I have found them to have many other uses, and they are extremely convenient, primarily because of the handle. Over time, with frequent use, the bowls may show some minor wear, but they are inexpensive to replace.

Yes you can, just keep an eye on the temperature in the bowl, be it air or water. Bear in mind, you are asking about the cover of the heating pad, not the heating pad. I'm answering the question as if you were asking about the heating pad and not the cover.

If cut in half, in the largest one, yes. But as that is the container that retains the heat, this bento pack is better suited for hot lunches of any kind. We generally put any and all types of leftovers in the large and medium containers, and leave the smallest (top) container for salad or snack foods. Hope that helps. For hot lunches, really...I could not be more pleased with this set.

Yes. I eat soup out of these bowls all the time. I really love these bowls!

It's awesome for soup and leftovers, just not oatmeal (unless it's instant- which I don't eat) Here's info http://sistemaplastics.com/products/microwave/Breakfast-Bowl Plastic but not normal cheap plastic. Won't stain or melt. We love for soup.

These bowls are meant to be used for salads and soup. They are not Pyrex. A little light microwaving, OK. Boiling, no I don't think so. Find some Pyrex bowls for that.

Yes, but be careful not to add frozen ingredients after hearing the bowl. Avoid putting it into cold water after heating.
