Maybe he is young and doesn't remember when this type of fondue was
all the rage in the 60s.

I used to love having a party with this kind of fondue, but the odor
(even with kitchen exhaust fans going) lingers too long in the house -
I don't do it any more. But I still have my fondue pots (wedding
presents in 1962).
