check out how much food is being used. The food is not that expensive and if she is a good cook leave it be or do you really want to test another ? It's the wages paid to prepare the food and dish it out that usually is the biggest expense. Have smaller serves as this is healthier. Ask her advice if too much food is being used. Get her to cook more vegetables especially those in season. There are lots of polite options so just try harder. In the end you may just have to except the extra cost. Just remember that she is a good cook and these are hard to find so good luck !

Are they out of their flipping minds? It's toxic. Of course it matters. I'd sue the *** off whoever did that to you or did you just do it yourself? Go to a doctor immediately. A duraflame log has chemicals added to whatever they put in it to make it burn and burn slow and long. It is no way intended to cook over. I would think there would be a warning on the log or did you not read it?

Their website says not to cook over a Duraflame log. But this is copied from their website that addresses eating it.
PRODUCT SAFETY
Should I be concerned if my pet or child eats part of a duraflame firelog or firestarter product?
Duraflame firelogs and firestarters are made from non-hazardous petroleum and non-petroleum waxes and oils, and finely ground fiber from wood and nut shells. There is no immediate health risk to a pet or small child consuming small amounts (several ounces) of the product. The pet or child could experience some stomach discomfort or might vomit, but no long term health damage should occur. Safety information about our products is registered with most poison control centers in the USA, which is readily accessible to Medical Doctors and Veterinarians . Still it is always a good practice to store our firelog and firestarter products in places that are not accessible to pets and small children.

Duraflame contains MANY toxic substances to promote the burning effect. You should never eat food cooked over one of these logs. See a doctor if your illness persists!!!!

If you were just using it to heat pots and pans you'll be fine, you probably just didn't cook it thoroughly enough. If you stuck food straight in the petrol flames that wouldn't be good for you but you'll get over it.

Not good!!!! Those logs are made of a cocktail of chemicals that give them the pretty colors. I would seek medical help.
