I have to wonder if they are flexible enough to form spouts to pour if
they might also get accidentally squished and slop the contents before
you are ready to pour. I would not be without my 2 cup Pyrex measuring
cup, but I also have a one cup stainless and a set of nesting cups in a
ring with 1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4 and 1/8 cup size that are great for measuring
out packed brown sugar.
