Do you consider it "recycled" because the same chocolate flows all night? I guess you could think of it that way if you were a killjoy. There fun and interesting, IMO.

A friend of mine got one for Christmas last year and brought it over with some dipping goodies one night. It's rather messy, mostly because you set it up in the middle of the table and then everyone's stuff drips chocolate all over the place as the food travels from fountain to mouth. Also, you have to add oil to the chocolate in order to make it flow more easily. That was sort of gross.
