Come on, let's revive this excellent topic!
ONE of the dumbest things I've done was to leave a can of cooking spray on a hot grill. I do get the CONCEPT that heating aerosol cans is dangerous, but I didn't apply it to
the particular situation I was in at work. Usually when I work on the grill, I use a pan of melted butter, not the cooking spray. So quite thoughtlessly I set the can down
on the hot grill, as I would have done with a pan of butter, and left it unattended...the cook who was in charge that day found it and removed it,
otherwise I might not be here typing this now.
