Doggy Style, or, where's my chow?


Nobody seems to have noticed or was scared to ask. That is, to ask about the dog bowls shown prominently in one photo. Human beings eating out of dog bowls.
Yuk. Eek. Well, there is a very good reason for that. I learned this from an experienced delivery skipper, who introduced me to this practice several years ago. The reason is, that a dog bowl is a deep bowl. Thus, keeping your dinner from sloshing over and off the plate. You can grab the bowl and eat out of it quite easily, while holding it with one hand. Whatever food is on the menu, the dog bowl can handle it. During an offshore passage, when the seas can get rough, it is the ideal dinner plate. Woof, woof!
