Years ago we lived in a... Less than ideal situation, where we had no power for the first year we lived there, and no plumbing for the entirety of our 3 year stay. In the winter that first year, we sort of accidentally created one on the wood stove, and I looked it up online when I went into town to see how long you could leave it going. It'd been three days, and we found the wiki article. Ended up keeping it for the entire winter until we weren't using the wood stove anymore (cooking outside once it was warm enough). It was good. It got old, but it was food, and that winter, that was the important part.
