Can I fill it with soup and take to work, or is it too squishable to actually carry food?

Hi Sharlee, I found this bowl to be a bit squishier (softer) then the Aladdin silicone bowls. So, if I was taking soup; I'd choose the Aladdin & use this one for salad or cereal. Hope this helps

I have filled it with soupy noodles, but you do have to be careful not to crush it. It is leakproof, but not squish proof. After a while, I discovered a funny smell. Nothing toxic, just seems to have absorbed my numerous lunches and can't quite get the smell out. I think over all better for cold (no heating required) food.

So I got the bowl to make ramen noodles in while deployed to Afghanistan and when I'd try and use it for that it was a little more squishy than I would have liked so I ended up making a mess enough times that I got another more sturdy bowl. It is very well suited for solid food/snacks but I didn't have a good experience trying to use it for soup. Hope that helps.

It's NOT airtight. The middle compartment comes pretty close and I've had success with things like hummus and yogurt, but if you're looking to pack soup go with a standard thermos.

Although the lids are tight, I wouldn't trust them for carrying soup- maybe salad. Also, they are glass and I would be nervous about kids dropping them- they do break. They are great for leftovers.

Yes! I keep the large cans of progresso soup at my desk at work... I think they are 19 oz so they fit perfect. I just start it about an hour before I want to eat! I love mine and 5 more people at work have bought one since seeing mine. Another bonus is I keep it plugged in while I eat because I often get interrupted during lunch... My soup stays hot!

I don't see why not, as long as you don't need space for more that a few Tablespoons! And it would be the cutest soup bowl ever!!!!

It depends on what you're used to in terms of spoon size. I think it's on the normal side as far as spoons go but it's definitely not large. Yes, it's definitely suitable for soup!

It's pretty big, so bringing your lunch to work in this thing would be pretty excessive. It does have good insulation and a water tight interior, so you COULD bring hot/cold stuff in it and have the temperature maintained fairly well.

This is a wide mouth soup cup which is not what I expected. I ended up giving it to my daughter so I cannot answer your question. if you pack your lunch and do soup it would be good.

I just pour it in, otherwise it wouldn't fit all the food. It's supposed to be food grade plastic, so I think its safe enough.

I can't imagine why you would want to pressurize soup or sauce, but it would not function with any kind of solid pieces in the soup. it would clog and you'd be left with a pressurized cylinder that you could not relieve the pressure on.

I gave it as a gift but it has a good seal according to my friend and they say it works great, I wouldn't take soup in it but anything else should be fine. and keeping it in the tote bag ( even the Japanese tie theirs up in a 'napkin' ) and upright doesn't hurt as well, at least that how the one I have works. PS use the band it comes with to secure it...

I don't think it would be used to carry soup but they do make another product made for that purpose.

I haven't used it for transporting liquids, but it does seem airtight. That being said, it is not that firm, so the lid may pop open if the dish is too full.

small soup cans? For sure. Big "Chunky" style... honestly not too sure. Likely should have waited to get home to answer but if I didn't right now it just wasn't going to happen.Have a great day.

I think you could b/c the lunch bag stretches, but it would still be tight for something with the size dimensions you've given.

I am able to carry it without any problem. I have a sedentary job and do not work out regularly. It comes with a case with handles so it is not unwieldy --- it is easy to carry and not too heavy.

Mark - it will hold liquids as long as you don't go flinging them around. It's not gonna be great for soup really but a little sriracha or something like that in one of the compartments would probably be fine. Get one. It's worth it. Killer customer service too.
