Im amazed that Ive never seen any mention of Souffle Cups on these boards. They are the little containers that hold Jello Shots (as most people would know them), Ranch/Marinara or whatever from a restaurant, and have a huge number of practical uses for someone trying to get in shape. I swear by these little things and have no idea how some people live without them. It took me a long time to find out what the hell these cups were actually CALLED but once I did ive always had my house stocked with them.
Some ideas for what to use them for.
- For the "on the go" person you can easily hold all your supplements for the day in one easy to carry plastic cup.
- Holds a perfect 1 scoop serving of whey. Ever been worried about not being able to get food while going out with your friends? Carry one of these in your pocket/car and you can have a quick hit of protein wherever you are. I personally always have 2 cups in my car for emergencies (sad I know)
- Makes weighing things insanely easy. Just put it on your scale and tear it. I personally weigh everything from BCAA powder to Peanut Butter in these things. Ever been worried about measuring your peanut butter with the very inaccurate tablespoon? Worry no more. With these cups you can now weigh out your peanut butter to the dot and keep it right next to your dinner in a nice little bowl.
- Cheap, disposable, convienient...You get about 200 of these in a pack that costs like 3-5 bucks so there is no worries about wasting money when you trash them. No more holding onto your "on the road" carrying case for whatever. You can now just use whatever you put into the cup then throw it away knowing you have another 199 at home.
- Customize your sizes. The cups come in a variety of sizes from 1 oz to 5oz. Personally I use the 2 oz.
You have to buy the lids seperately for like 1-2 bucks but thats no big deal. The only annoying part is they are like hotdogs/buns. The cups come in 200's and the lids come in 100's. Its probably different in different stores but the store down the street only carries those increments. You wont find these at your standard large grocery store. Albertsons, Safeway etc... You have to go to a bargain type store like Smart and Final, or just do a search online.
Anyway just tossing it out for people to check out. I love em and wanted to share.
