this comment is towards ur trail food vids, mre-s come with peqnut butter in sqeeze tubes, most place that sell them will sell boxes of just condiments such as peanut butter.
I have one of these also. If you know somebody with a sams' club membership, they sell "safe heat" chafing fuel in a 12 pack for $13.00. It is the same type of fuel as the coughlans but in a little larger can (still fits) I have also had success using a Trangia stove and fuel tabs. For the fuel tabs I put them on top of a small inverted can with vent holes to feed the fuel, works well.
I used one of the Coghlan's folding stoves for about 2 years before I went to my little alcohol stove, but people seem to forget that it makes a wonderful wood burning stove when your in a pinch and run out of fuel, I still have that folding stove and will never part with it
Those Camp Heat things are basically chaffing fuel like they put under the warming trays at buffets. You can get a package of like 18 2-hour cans of that stuff @ Sam's Club for cheap.
I believe it's ethylene glycol - same as what you put in your radiator (except at full strength). They're great, I prefer it to Sterno. Lasts longer, too.
I suppose if you don't get the can sealed tight but I haven't had a problem. But you could use a different fuel source like solid fuel(Trioxane) or something similar.
Have you tried using small pieces of wood?. would that work?

@WthzoroProductions All the cans of chaffing fuel I've ever seen are liquid, with some sort of plastic barrier with a soaked fabric/wick coming out.

@uncleben03 yes this is a liquid fuel one but no they use an ethonal gel in bufet things :o

@johnmonk66 It does'nt boil water unless you have very dry not damp conditions and a lid for your pot.

@lmyhoosier No way it is very leak proof.
