Car Fondue   (+1, -2)  [vote for, against]
Tasty Fondue from the heat of your engine or power of the sun cooked dashboard.

Fondue - pronounced [fahn-DOO] The word fondue is derived from the French word "fondre" which means "melt".

Use the heat from the sun in the summer to melt you favorite fondue right on your dashboard in a nifty dashboard fondue pot.

In the winter use the heat from your engine to make a tasty cheezie or chocolatie snack.

Everone love fondue so now we can have it to go... Plus that lovely fresh fondue smell in your car...

(I know don't eat and drive but, the passengers sure can enjoy)

My brother-in-law used to heat his lunch on the steel dash of his old International Travelall. Being in the desert, this worked serviceably for him most of the year (until I gave him a microwave oven that I no longer needed).

There are plenty of "cooking with engine heat" cookbooks out there. Dunno if any have fondue preparation instructions though.

Can I get a little vessel built in to the exhaust manifold so I can make french fries on the go?

If you convert to biodiesel, you can dump the leftover oil into your fuel tank.

French fries on the go. Sounds great. Is this before or after the quadruple bypass?
