Liquid Sterno

Now that fondue cooking seems to be coming back, I'm giving a gift of a fondue set with a fondue cookbook. Also want to give some sterno. Here's the question. First, do all fondue pots use the same size canned sterno? Then, liquid sterno is being sold at the local bed and bath. Instructions say that you just pour the liquid where the sterno goes. This sounds much easier. Does anyone know anything about this liquid sterno? Thanks. Win Yes, I used liquid stereo for years with my stainless steel set. it is wonderful if you can find it!! |

I googled but all I get is a muscle  It is a fuel, primarily used with buffet pans and chafing dishes, made from jelled alcohol and comes in a small can. You remove the top and light the jell and slide the container under the buffet pan to keep the contents warm. Sometimes, informally, referred to as "canned heat". http://www.sternopro.com/ ==================== Thank you )-- Change Cujo to Juno for email. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk |

Why the heck would they buy Sterno instead of wine? How cheap was Sterno? The stuff was toxic as it contained methanol. Evidently, to junkies, what don't kill you can make you high and therefore has some value. |
