thats not real camping..camping is going out into the woods with just the necessities and taking nature in.

it'll release toxins though at a much lower temperature. aluminum can pipes lead to throat cancer

i dont really no that much about it but, just thought it would be cool to try, but  the holes on the top release pressure, so it wont like melt?
