So handy and lightweight. I bought a 25 lb box of unsweetened carob chips in bulk, and was very happy to have this scoop to use when dividing the chips into resealable freezer bags. It shortened the length of the job measurably. And, my hand/arm didn't tire because the scoop is so light. I have these in 24 oz and 5 oz sizes. Both are very useful in numerous ways. Folks use them for pet food as well.
