Female: So planning our trip but we need a really good set of cookware. In order to find that perfect set for us, I think we should talk to Mr. Dick to find out what questions we should be asking when we go into the store. So what should we be asking Dick?
Dick: First, you have to have enough volume in whatever kind of cookware you have in order to cook the amount of food that you are going to need for two people. Not of course, it is going to be dependent on which your appetites are like and so forth. Then it needs to fit into a certain weight category especially if you are going to be carrying it and then certainly it should be compact no matter where you are going. So as much compact as it is possible with the number of units that you have.
Female: So, I am planning a trip for two people. What do I need to bring at what you display here?
Dick: All right, well this is one of my favorite two mantle sets right here. This by the way, a little lid used for the pot grabber as your frying pan. Then we go down in here and we look and we see two small bowls and this need to be our own eating utensils beside our cups, then we can have plates also as we do here and they can be in stainless, they can be in aluminum or plastic. Here in the stainless, again with a pot grabber, they double as frying cans. All right now, over here, we have titanium. Now, this is very light, transmits heat very readily as a nice small pot grabber to go with it and then this lid can also be used as a fry pan. Now, many people like to have a longer fry pan even if they kept like this because they want to use that for a lid. And then for your teas and other drinks, it is nice to have along your teapot.
Female: So now I wanted to go with four people, what do I add to what you have just told?
Dick: Okay that is very simple, we just bring the this in over here and take the lid out there and now we have got two more little bowls. We have a pot here which will, except that. We put the lid on top of that and I will be sure to have a bag to go into so they do stay compact and we have a somewhat larger fry pan, a couple more of plates or a couple more of bowls depending upon what you want to eat out of and we are set.
Female: And would you recommend the titanium versus steel versus aluminum?
Dick: Well stainless steel I think is your best bargain. Aluminum is okay, but it tends to leak toxins into your food. The titanium is very good, but also very expensive.
Female: Okay, so the three main point, is that viewers needs to know is volume, weight and the last one is compactness, very important. All right, now we are ready to go out and buy those cooking pots.
