Is it safe to roast marshmallows with a lighter?!


Question:

Is it safe to roast marshmallows with a lighter?


Answers:
Yes... I've tried it, but my mallow kinda had that butane taste.
Hahaha.... just be careful.

Probably not.

Depends on the lighter.

Lighters burn fuel which can add a certain "flavour" to the marshmallow. It's not necessarily poisonous but I can't see it being all that tasty. That is unless you like the taste of butane...

SURE WHY NOT ITS FIRE RIGHT

I doubt it, I have used the gas from the stove top and placed the marshmellow on a skewer and rotated it. Smores without a campfire.

I've done that over an electric stove before. Go for it just be careful.

Hank Hill says butane is a bastard gas.
I'd think a candle is safer and better tasting.

you know I would have to say yes it can be dangeres because freak accidents happen to people all the time and you never know when I have herd of difernt types of lighters exploding my sugetion to you is just incase something did accidently go rong would it have been worth it is a 10 to 50 chance that nothing will happen but with me I wouldent take that chance at all

It depends on the lighter, if it says something along the lines of "do not keep lit for more than X seconds" then obviously no. Otherwise it would just taste wierd.

no
