Wise advice! Now my curiosity is piqued, and I'm going to get around to trying it and see how it works. I think it's one of the cleverest and most resourceful things I've ever seen.
I have seen nothing that says it will ignite, but never leave any lit candle unattended.

good stuff to know.
hate to think of needing it for 72 days of darkness
If you realize that Crisco was developed by the German Navy during WW I as a synthetic lube for their submarine diesel engines it will help understanding why it works.. Doesn’t stink like petroleum oils and doesn’t burn. They didn’t call it “Crisco”. That took some years when others figgered out it was edible. And it’s still the basis for other lubes we use in things like breathing air compressors.
Anderol 500 comes to mind. You can put the stuff on your pancakes. ( I didn’t say do it. I just said you could).
And Crisco should be an item on your prepper’s list.
Re Crisco:
I have read that if you put a clay flower pot, inverted, over it, it can heat a room.
