* use Doritos as kindling

it’s almost officially summer

and for those of you who enjoy camping or just a good bonfire,

here’s a  hack that’s a win-win in my book.

*(important note: don’t forget to hide them from the family/friends, as they may disappear)

Fire won’t start? Not a problem! We got you! If you don’t want to spend money on expensive fire starters go ahead and stop by your local grocery store and pick up a bag of Doritos. These dense, oily, corn chips are combustible, ideal kindling for starting a fire, and will last for a long time. Bonus Tip: We heard that if you get the Flaming Hot Doritos they light up even faster!

  15. Funny, but not the best hack. Naturally dried moss with sap is great and free. Or what I have in my disaster preparedness, back country hiking pack is a bag of cotton balls with petroleum jelly as water resistant starters. Something fun you can show the kids: lighting steel wool with a 9-volt battery. You can do it about three times then the battery is useless.
