I picked up this little gem of wisdom during a long round of internet travel research.

These lids are light weight, functional, and take up very little room in your backpack. They can even bend if you need them to, allowing you to be flexible with how and where you pack them in your gear. Great for an impromptu plate, slicing surface, or serving platter in the park. Give it a whirl!
