Editing Tableware (section)

==Adaptations==

Tableware for special circumstances has to be adapted.{{Citation needed|date=June 2023}} Dining in the outdoors, for example, whether for recreational purposes, as on a [[picnic]] or as part of a journey, project or mission requires specialised tableware. It must be portable, more robust and if possible, lighter in weight than tableware used indoors. It is usually carefully packed for transportation to the place where it will be used.
