Gas is cheaper & it makes cooking go fast! Kerosine is expensive not only considering the amount for the purchase of kerosine also consider the money spent on buying vim & soap for washing the back of the pot & repenting the kitchen within a short interval. undecided click like if this is truth or closer to the truth! grin

i read thru de whole thread carefully to listen if i'l hear any1 talk about 'green stoves'. No one did. Thts quite surprising, especially those clamouring for CLEAN ENERGY. Earlier i started a thread on CARBON CREDITS NETWORK (do a search here u'l c it). Am currently using their green stoves alongside my gas. Its pure, no waste at all, oh de only waste it produces is water anyway. CLEAN ENERGY

grin[quote author=Richiy]If for nothing, the fact that I would never again rigorously and vigorously wash back of pots and the fact that I would never have to worry about the thread of the stove or put my hand in the kerosene tank makes gas my number one choice. [/quote

Babe, I feel u. Can't tell you how many times I've had my fingers burnt trying to pull up a shrunken thread. And again, stove parts need replacement every now and then. Takes money, time, energy and fine fingernails grin thank God I'm now liberated.

Kerosene is cheaper but gas is better cos of d its neatness. A 12.5kg of gas lasts an average of 10days in my household of 11people,while kerosene of about the same amount (25ltrs)lasts for abt 20days!

emmysenior: Cooking gas all the way, 3k gas will take me for 5months, while 3k kerosene will take maybe just 2months plus.

_______________________________________________

Once every weekend, My finacêê will make two soups and a pot of stew. Then I'll store them in the refrigerator. Plus I go to work and return 6:45 or 7pm as the case maybe, except weekends.

Perhaps that's why it always last longer for me.

Controversy: As a beginner cooking with gas or kerosene which 1 is cheaper?
I need peep with experience
To me gas is the best and cheaper, with my reasons.
*gas leaves no charcoals to your put, while kerosene does.
*1 litre of kerosene is 150naire, which could not last for two cooks.
*12.5kg of gas=3.5naire last more than a month.
