G., I hope you punctured that can of beans. Reason I say so is because it reminded me of an incident a few years back. We were camping and indulging in some drinking. Anyways, my buddy was getting hungry and threw a can of beans in the fire, just as we were going into the camper to make some drinks. He followed us in and forgot about the beans. Needless to say, about 10 minutes later we heard what sounded like a shotgun go off, causing us to just about s**t our pants. We cautiously looked outside the camper for a hunter or something and found that the camper, the trees, the car, had all been covered with beans. And not a small can of beans. We're talking a big gallon can of beans. It took us about a half-day to clean all of those beans off the camper and car.

Still laughing at it, Dion

Truth be known, I've warmed a can of beans, and a large can of La Choy Chop Suey in the warm-air guide of my former T2 1976...

BTW--- take the wrapper off first, and be prepared for the can to swell.

No, but it sounds a lot like the heater box from a beetle to me!! Maybe *that's* why VW did it that way! But, you have to be going 60 before the darn roll will cook... bmc :) "Faith will move mountains, but you'd better bring a shovel...."
