The Matchlight formula must have changed - doesn't light as easily
on September 26, 2014
Posted by: JackInArizona
from Phoenix, AZ
I am somewhat disappointed. I always bought Matchlight because all you had to do is touch a match to it and the bricquets would immediately light with a good steady flame, and they would be entirely gray and ready to cook over in about 10 to 15 minutes. Not any longer. Now I ave to either soak then with lighter fluid, or what I have been doing lately is use small squares of camphor to light the charcoal. And it take longer for them to completely light. Another formerly good product that someone messed with, probably to save money and cut production costs per unit. This is happening with a lot of consumer products these days. From here on out I will just get regular charcoal and use camphor to light it.
Pros: Easy to Use, Good Value
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bad batch?

Maybe I bought a bad batch but I have had no luck with this bag of grill coals. I have some coals that look like they have been dried out and none of the coals will light. I hate using lighter fluid and probably won't but this will most likely be my last time buying this product.
Pros: Easy to Use, Ready to Grill on Quickly, Made with Natural Ingredients
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Sometimes it don't work

I buy this brand all the time, and have never had a problem. I don't normally make gripes, but I just bought a large bag of Match Light Charcoal, opened it and the very first pour will not light. Normally, I would recommend this product, and probably will do so in the future, but I am very disappointed with the latest results.
Pros: Ready to Grill on Quickly, A Brand I Trust
I would recommend this to a friend!
