## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it has skin built with this order??**
A: No.  It does not have a cover or pouch.

**Q: Is this worth getting for actual use, like over a fire or with esbit tablets? Or should I just get the real thing?**
A: Works fine on an esbit stove using fuel tabs. Any sooting from the esbit tabs seems to come off if you wipe the bottom of the pot against grass or leaves.

**Q: Will this mess kit fit into a US canteen pouch?**
A: Depends on which canteen pouch, from which iteration of issue canteens.  Probably not if WWII or later.  If the pouch has the smaller bottom to fit the canteen that slants into a smaller bottom than top the straight sides of the mees kit don't adjust to.

**Q: Can I cook with it**
A: I've cooked with mine a few times and it's been just fine, sometimes the tablet cookers can leave a little bit of residue but that's the tablets, not an issue with the can!
