  I think the real shocker here is that you are openly admitting to reading tmz.com! ;)Wonder if

  For a bit of a different perspective on this, I'll throw my 2¢ in and say that I think you
  should just go ahead and make the Mr. Beer kit in the Mr. Beer set. It certainly can't hurt to

  properly c...

  Mmm, Cajun brew, sounds good to me!I wouldn't think the SS pot would have any probs with
  carrying over tastes from its last contents. If it were seasoned cast iron it would be an
  issue.That looks like...
