Bowls

I'm in a hotel in New Jersey. The room has a full kitchen including basic dishes and pans and flatware, etc. So I have a can of soup and I want to eat it- I dont want to wash a pan and stand there and stir it for 20 minutes, so I go for the microwave method. I locate the bowls in the cupboard and wash one in the 800 degree hot water that comes out of the tap. I pour the soup in- but its all settled in the can; all the solids (potato, chicken) are at the top in a glob and all the cheesy soup is at the bottom. I didn't know this, so I just kind of tipped the can up to pour some soup in the bowl when SPLAT- the liquid somehow escapes the can first, loosing the solids in a rushing mass which then splash into the liquid and the bowl overflows.

Did cans of soup used to be smaller? Is it that people just used to eat less at one time? Why is this bowl so small? I ended up scooping 2/3 of the soup back into the can because that's all the bowl could hold at one time.

The microwave just beeped "done" and now I can feel the bowl laughing at me because it knows I will have to grab it's burniness not only once, but three times because I want to eat that whole can of soup but it refuses to allow me to do that in one microwaving/eating session.

Am I still hungry? Yes.
