Haven't tried the new Kingsford yet but looking forward to see how it performs. As an employee of a consumer product company, I am amazed at the amount of access and information the Clorox company gave to Chris. Can't imagine my company giving that level of information to anyone but the FDA...

This horse may be dead already but wanted to get a few kicks in. I have tried beer, wine, and apple juice in the water pan at separate times and nothing made much of a difference.
