Heh!... Back in the '60s I shared a floor of a crumbling fire trap of an old inn in Antrim NH with several other students from a nearby college. Always looking to cut food expenses I would occasionally fire up my Svea camp stove to prepare a meal in my room. Remember Svea? The one where you poured a puddle of white gas around the burner to pre-heat the stove and it would flare up like a rocket? (whoosh) Yep, that one! I finally got caught when the owner smelled my cooking one evening!
Back on topic, I see that Walmart indeed stocks Coleman branded isopropane canisters at many locations. They had so in the past, then they discontinued them for a while, now back on the menu.
