Not just wet items. My knife is pretty sharp. I’d likely shred a paper bag cutting things like onions and chopping fresh garlic. That’s why I have a small, light cutting board. (A bit obscured by the shallot.) I used to carry a large Lexan plate that served as my cutting board, but I never used it for eating so I leave it home now.
The relative new to me pieces of food gear that I love are my collapsible, nesting bowl and cup from Sea to Summit. So less bulky than my Lexan bowl and cup.
