9 Companies Recall About 2 Million Bottles of Fuel Gel for Firepots

Nine companies have collectively recalled 2 million bottles of flammable gel used in outdoor patio firepots after dozens of users suffered severe burns using the products. The Consumer Product Safety Commission reported that many of the burns occurred when users poured more gel into the pots, unable to determine that gel was still burning inside. The gels can cause flash fires that are difficult to put out, the Los Angeles Times reports. https://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-firepot-recall-20110901,0,7099727.story
