My mother is cooking, suddenly the gas runs out and I have been traveling around to buy gas but it's all empty. Do you use gas for cooking?

Hi May2k8. Hope you and your mother have eaten your dinner last night. Yes, I have a tank of Liquified Petroleum Gas. But don't use it always now. Always using the Electric Induction Cooker. Besides that, I have a microwave oven and other ovens. And I also have Kettle Grills for charcoal grillings and bbq. I also have a smoker and a griddle.

@May2k8 Yeah I love food and cooking/baking and mostly I love grilling and smoking. I love eggs too, one of my happy foods. I also do that eggs cooked in a rice cooker.

@gjabaigar But unfortunately the rice cooker cannot cook vegetables, which in the end the vegetables are only placed in a refrigerator.

we use LPG (Liquefied petroleum Gas), and a 110 kg container can be used for 2-3 months.

Good, in my country it is usually difficult to find gas if the price wants to go up.

@sunrisefan I'm still confused about putting the spare where there are a lot of things that I have to throw away.

@May2k8 That is why it is good to have a spare tank so you won't be bothered when your tank runs out of gas.

I use the electromagnetic cooker, and that never bothered me about gas.

@May2k8 Instead of buying gas, you can run to buy a new electric.

Do you use LPG(Liquified Petroleum Gas) cylinders? I also used to have them till June 2015, but many of our houses now have piped gas connection(PNG), and I believe PNG is now becoming quite common worldwide.
