Anybody get a chance to try this yet? It was discussed a while back but I never did hear if anybody seriously tried it. This was supposed to be used for a great fire starter...

Would appreciate any feedback.

I thought about it, but I hate Cheeto's, and if for some reason they didn't burn up, what in the heck would I do with them???

Sounds tasty <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />. Oh wait were using them to start a fire?

I can't respond about Cheetos, but, I have hard evidence to support the flamability of Cheeze-It's, even without magnesium. This involved some very scientific tests at a campfire. It appears that some of my more inquisitive boys were studying the effects of fire on their favorite snack foods. <img src="/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> Something about the 8grams of fat per serving of Cheeze-It's that seemed to do the trick.

Still, I think they are too good to waste unless it's a survival situation.

I did try cornchips after seeing Survivalman. They work great, however I must admit; it would be hard not to eat them. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Tell ya what -

I have the space, the place and the equipment to make a wax-covered magnesium-dipped Cheeto flammability test video - so I'll take a run to the store and put the test together this weekend. Sounds like it could be fun.

How did your little test turn out?

I'll bet the chips didn't make it through the game. I know mine didn't..... <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

What kind of flavor does the magnesium add?

Remember, it's not easy being cheesy!
