we used to boil eggs in styrofoam cups filled with water in the Scouts. Not environmentally friendly, but this was like 1980 and people still threw EVERYTHING out the window while driving back then. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Anyway, I wouldn't want to eat anything cooked in styrofoam nowadays, but it was a pretty neat trick seeing the top melt where there was no water, but the cup remaining intact.
