At school, there are going to be many times that you are late for class or in a rush and don't have time to go and get food. Having a set of bowls handy is a great idea to both save time and money. Eating out for every meal can be very costly and you can have a balanced bowl of cereal/oatmeal in the convenience of your own room. The bowls are easily cleanable and the set allows you to switch between bowls in case you didn't have time the day before to clean up!
