1 Coke/Pepsi can.
1 Piece of Chocolate.
Fire for the 21st century... come and get it:

I'm glad to read this now they have banned matches and lighters from planes. In a survival situation one of the 3 key things you need is fire, assuming you survive the plane crash...

toothpaste, and to be honest theres a good chance that if im camping that i will have tooth paste with me, where as chocolate would be the last thing on my list to pack. |
well alot of expeditions take it for a quick energy boost, but the point is that you said they wern't using it to make fire, when clearly they were! therefore the topic title is not misleading... what do you want it to read "How to make a fire with a coke can and piece of chocolate, toothpaste, or other appropriate polishing compound" ............... hmmm doesn't have quite the same ring somehow?

The first thing I learned in boy scouts back in the day was that chocolate was an aphrodisiac... Never leave home without it
