    Good riddance, I hate disposable barbecues. You want to have a barbecue wherever you travel? Get a portable grill instead, not this piece of soon-to-be garbage.

      Oh, for sure. Most of is made of aluminum which, if not recycled, apparently takes 200-500 years to decompose.

        I couldn’t find a specific reason online, so I probably misremember. It’s just the throw away nature of the thing then.

        They’re terrible for the grass that they’re used on, it burns the stuff beneath it.

          Yeah, I can imagine. Some of the ones I’ve seen came with a small stand to get around this problem, which was really just a bent wire, but I guess this solution isn’t exactly commonplace. Not that it matters, disposable barbecues are a flawed concept to begin with and they should just go away.

    People like this don’t give a dime about the environment, they would even eat meat every day.

    Oh… wait a minute…
