I'll have the soup. And the bowl, please

For those who can't stand the washing up, help is at hand with one of the strangest culinary inventions in years - the bread bowl.
A Nottingham food firm has started making bowls and plates out of dough. The idea is that diners enjoy a soup, chilli or curry, then eat the bowl too.
David Williams, the managing director of Butt Foods, which has developed the idea, admits: "Our banks, our investors all thought we were crackers. But we've now proved them wrong."Mr Williams says Butt's bowls hold their shape for eight hours without going soggy.
