The ink in newspapers is often 'not good' to 'bad' for your health, which makes rubbing it onto your cookwares a slightly dubious choice.
That used to be true, these days most newspaper inks are soy based, so its probably safe.
This is a real problem. My wife had been having extreme stomach pain for months, multiple trips to the emergency room, gastroenterologist, nothing could be found. She described that she felt that there was a hole in her stomach, the doctors called it stress. On her final ER visit (two months after the pain began), something showed up in the CT scan (the 3rd one). Embedded in her belly fat was a wire. Everything click…

What mattashii said: newspaper ink has (or at least used to have) lots of lead. I'm not sure how bad it is, but I'd imagine that long-term you might want to avoid it. Specially when something as easy to find as a potato or a bunch of leaves will do the same job without the risk :)
> but I'd imagine that long-term you might want to avoid it. It's safe now. People use it for compost all the time. The real danger from a BBQ is smoke.

It's like the lady from reddit that wears ear plugs to bed everyday because of a horrifying experience with a cockroach. Of course you get a few horrifying experiences when you have millions of people doing stuff.

Fuck this I'm done with brushes.
You pull a dead tree down, light it, then roll a supermarket trolley/cart filled with meat into the resulting fire.
It's interesting many countries such as the US, UK and NZ have banned rare earth magnets due to fear of people swallowing them. The data they used to back the banning included all products ingested, and vice wrote up an article here: http://www.vice.com/read/the-consumer-product-safety-commiss... If a product is causing similar health risks, isn't it fair to apply the same ban to it too?

A trick I learned from Argentinian circus people, who make amazing BBQ, is let the grill heat up and then cut an onion in half to rub on the grate. It imparts a nice flavor and cleans the grill very well.
The Argentinian trick is basically: 1. let the grill get hot 2. rub with something to clean old grit 3. rub again with a chunk of fat (from the meat) for flavor The "something" in step #2 has varied over the years. Back in the day, my grandpa used to use old newspapers... which of course we know today it's not such a great idea, heh. Onions, half a potato, a corn stalk, even a chunk of brick will do the trick. You ju…
