Survival Tips: Urban Foraging

Urban Foraging 101: Finding Fire in the Big City

Step 1: Identify Potential Fire Sources

• Abandoned pizza places with a good pizza oven
• High-rise office buildings with a functional elevator
• Abandoned movie theaters with a working popcorn machine

Step 2: Approach the Source with Caution

• Check for any visible flames or sparks
• Look for signs of recent human activity (i.e., discarded coffee cups or trash)
• Smell the air for any signs of burning fabric or hair

Step 3: Acquire Fire

• For pizza places, ask the owner if you can have a slice
• Office buildings: find the elevator maintenance closet and hope for the best
• Movie theaters: just take the popcorn machine. It's not like it's going to hurt anyone

Step 4: Use Fire Wisely

• Warm up your hands
• Toaster waffles are a must
• Host a fire-themed party
