Burn Baby, Burn!




This is one of the best ways to start a fire (on a grill of course).

THE LOOFTLIGHTER ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR LIGHTER FLUID.

In Sweden alone, lighter fluid consumption adds up to at least 10 million bottles a year.* This figure does not include disposable grills or petroleum lighter cubes. Since lighter fluid burns at a low temperature it emits a lot of toxic hydrocarbons when ignited. Lighter fluid is based on fossile gasoline and is part of the problem with global warming. Use of lighter fluid and petroleum products in the barbeque always affects the food.
