Don't know what Chainsaw's Cozy loooks like, but I have one made from the end of
an ensolite pad.
If it's not too cold out I just use my pack towel.
It's great for all the reasons people use them, namely fuel savings, and very
little clean up, not to mention you don't have to sit and stir while cooking.

Must be McCann's
If you can cook that stuff using a cozy, you're doing good.  I just stick to
generic oatmeal for the most part.

Try Hodgson Mills oat bran cereal.  Consistancy is a little finer than grits,
and it tastes yummy.
