I just realised that I have never seen or used it, neither crude oil of course, but there are more variants of it than this natural mineral that powers a lot of the world.

What led to you seeing or touching coal?

    Did you never seen someone grill? Or had art classes? I’ve even seen the massive coal mines being excavated here in Germany.

      I wouldn’t grill with anything but anthracite and even then, I don’t know that I would. You guys actually use coal from the ground at bbqs? We mostly use charcoal which is pyrolysed wood

      That’s not coal; that’s charcoal, which is typically a wood byproduct.

        That’s, usually not even charcoal. (Well “briquettes” isn’t. Briquettes are mostly sand and filler)
