Title: FlameDisk ... for when you just can't be bothered with charcoal OR regular gas.
Post by: addicted-to-smoke on March 26, 2015, 11:36:19 AM
From what I've read, BIC bought this invention from some other company. BIC's page for it isn't loading at the moment, so here's an Amazon link:

http://www.amazon.com/BIC-Charcoal-Alternative-FlameDisk-1-Pack/dp/B0062QJLSI

First person here to try it gets a prize.*

Won't be me, as it appears to be everything I'd not want to use.












*No actual prizes awarded :)

Did anyone else notice the steps are numbered correctly but out of order? I was baffled for a second when it said to light the thing and then peel back lid.

How long for the the YouTube video to emerge of someone playing frisbee with it?

I believe I seen this in my local grocery store. I know I saw it on CL packaged with a SJ few months ago here.

I have a suspicion it would still work the same either way.

I bought two last year at Walmart since they were free with a rebate. I have not used them. You must cook with an open kettle or it snuffs out the flame.
