Not so fast. While some coffee cups have handles, I have many such cups without handles. Drinks sold at KSU games in cups, including coffee, have no handles. Starbuck's sells takeout coffee in cups without handles. Etc.

It's not the bowl man's fault that cup man didn't have a more vision for his product. Bowl man had bigger ideas.

The first bowls were called "trenchers" which were basically bread bowls.

bread bowls really don't qualify as a bowl, iyam
not trying to be a dick but just because it holds something doesn't make it a bowl.

bucket, box, bowl. they all hold stuff, but they're not all bowls.

A bowl holds food.....which is exactly what a bread bowl does.

you can't put food in a box?
i can't put non-foodstuffs into a bowl?
i have a bowl at my desk at work, in it there is some loose change, a couple of goodcents footlong cards, a christmas card from a few years ago, assorted miscellany. no food though, i wonder, is my bowl a bag?

I think that is a bowl-shaped receptacle.

No way that's true, and I bet bowls predate the neolithic revolution.
