Okay, sounds silly when you put it that way but the fact of the matter is
you don't need a fondue pot to make fondue. And yes, I do own one. I was
just pointing out a special pot is not *required* in order to make fondue,
be it chocolate or cheese.

True. But the purpose of a fondue pot is to keep contents warm *away* from
the stove. Say on a serving table or buffet table in a dining room. Or
maybe some other party room, where the people are.
