The Swedish Trangia mess kits can be found for $50-$80 in minty condition, but the Swiss Volcanos are drying up a little bit, but those are mostly water boiling kit.

I received the Winterial 11 piece cheap-o cooking kit for Christmas and while probably not quite as small as the Trangia stuff, it does more, gets decent marks for cleanup and it all nestles nicely together in a nylon bag.  $38 shipped.  That, along with my Trangia stoves and holder, should do well in a pinch.  Not backpackable, but for car camping, they're fine.  I've got MSR Pocket Rocket knockoffs and Coleman dual fuel/propane stoves, so if the power goes out, I can cook some stuff.

I really want the Swedish Trangia kit, but not for those prices.

If you get the Swedish set, also pick up a Swedish army gas mask bag.  It is practically tailor made for the Swedish stove.  It even has a side pouch to store the fuel bottle so that it won't contaminate your food-

Not only that but many of the Swedish Trangia mess kits we see contain Chinese made repos, so be careful and read the descriptions, well.
