And its insanely easy with JB and cotton balls. Makes you look like Daniel Boone

I've heard of petroleum jelly and cotton balls. What is JB?

Like MB said, with some cotton balls saturated with Petroleum jelly, one or two strikes and it's going.

Yep, PJ and cotton balls/dryer lint makes a great starter.

I've started fire with corn chips before. Dad swears by peanut butter as a firestarter, but I've never tried it.

If bad comes to worse, I've got a couple cans of Sterno in my BOB that I can use to help start a fire.

I changed it Todd. It was supposed to be PJ. My fingers got a brain fart while typing.

I always keep several ways to make a fire in my pack. One of the ways is a road flare.

Yeah, I figured that out.

What other household things are good for starting fires? Anyone have any special tricks or secrets?

transmission fluid will work too---don't ask me how I know! Also, poder from a cartridge will get some fire going.

Just about anything with a high oil content, or alcohol based. You CAN use hand sanitizer to assist in getting a fire started.
