Guys serious question here.
I have been using lighters as an alternative to a stove because I don't have one. I basically just heat things and grill things using a lighter since I have a lot of them
After dinner I realized my spit was a lot more viscous than it probably should be so I started thinking that maybe the lighter fluid leaves some sort of residue.
There is nothing online about this as far as I could find so I have to post this here because there is no way im going on r*ddit.

so guys, will I die from my lifestyle?

That lighter would get so hot you'd burn your hand very quickly and then the plastic would start to melt. Don't try it op.

Lighter fluid contains phytoestrogens, so does spit, was you by any chance hetero before you started this lifestyle?

Lighters use butane. The flame from combusting butane will not make your food toxic, not. The act of cooking the food has a higher risk of giving you cancer than a butane flame making you sick.
Ever seen a torch used in a fancy restaurant? Those are butane torches. You'll be fine, poorfriend.

Also, I have a gf so that cant make me gay (well its more of a girl that lives with me that I fuck sometimes when we get high so theres that at least.)

>>11478960
I do it in bursts. Heat the foods up for 20 seconds, Wait for a bit, heat it up again. By that time it should be good to eat

>>11478967
no no no no, you have got it wrong.
I put the bread I have in my freezer to avoid it so it unfreeze it I have to heat them up.
I dont have a stove to heat it up (it broke like 2 years ago and I dont live in a registered house so no insurance) so I just use a lighter and Im wondering if it is poisonous.

Actually candles are a good idea although Id actually have to buy some.

No, it's a $5 can of flammable gas, you just turn the knob and light it on fire as it comes out. This cooks the food.
Alternately, Sterno is cheap and cooks well, but stinks imo. A pack of tealight candles will cost you like $5 for a hundred. There is absolutely no reason to use a fucking crack lighter to heat your food, I'd sooner make a fucking fire in my backyard for christ's sake. Why haven't you done that, apartment dwelling? There's got to be an alley nearby, maybe with a barrel you can use to have a fire in out there. Bring fingerless gloves too, it's chilly out.

Im in Britain so I can get arrested for making a fire in a public space
Im currently living alone-ish in some abandoned office block thingy. Its sealed and ive fixed the windows with boards so its not cold. There used to be like 3 of us but now its only me and the girl I mentioned earlier. (if you dont count the cunt making noise in the floor above me, never had the courage to see who it is. Probably a bum)

Currently in macdonalds rn so youll have to wait for pics if you want proofs since cunts here are mad skeptical

>I can get arrested for making a fire in a public space
This genuinely does not compute, for me. Making a fire is like the first fundamental human thing. The concept of a state banning it just doesn't make any sense, this has to be mistaken.
If you're in an abandoned building, create ventilation for the smoke and make a burnbarrel, just keep the flame small enough to not be seen outside.
Otherwise, those heater things? Any megamart, like Walmart or Meijer or whatever the bong equivalent is, poundshops probably have Sterno and definitely will have tealight candles.
As I said, pic related cost me $25 total and I've had it for around 5 years. Check the camping section of your local megamart.

You need a metal container off the floor to burn in, consider stacking bricks to make a mount and place a metal bin of some kind on top with airflow beneath. Poke a couple holes in the sides near the bottom to allow airflow into the burn-barrel.
Break sticks small enough to fit inside and stack up a good pile. When you're ready to sleep, let it die down to embers and don't sleep next to it where you might knock it over and scald yourself with red-hot burning coals.

If there's a hole anywhere in the roof, burn under it and use it as your chimney. If you keep the fire low, the light will not be visible unless you're next to a window, in which case just block up the window.
Also consider that if cops arrest you, they will cook food for you in jail using an actual stove.
