I saw a friend of mine purchasing a bag of royal oak natural lump,
with a bottle of charcoal starting fluid. I told her about using a
chimney starter, and she said "I have one". I explained to her how
using newspaper (sprayed with PAM, then rolled and twisted and put
under her charcoal starter like a donut) will prevent her yummy BBQ
food from tasting like Whiting Indiana. She listened to me and said
newspaper and pam is a lot cheaper than the starter fluid, and
understood also that I was helping her food remain healthy.

1 down, thousands to go, but at least I saved 1 BBQer and her family.

I've always used lighter fluid and have never had a lighter fluid
taste.

Of course I always take off the body and lid of the R2D2 before
lighting it, and let it burn for 10-15 minutes.
