It's just a new version of chocolate fondue. BTW, pineapple chunks in
chocolate are delightful (and I'm not all that fond of chocolate). Hmmm,
there's a chocolate kaluah (sp?) fondue recipe floating around here
somewhere. But I'm with you on the fountain gadget... totally unnecessary.
A fondue pot is also unnecessary; you can accomplish the same thing on the
stove top.
