Canned heat is like those little Sterno cans under a chafing dish... okay cool, but if you listen to very old blues you can hear them mention it... talking 20s 30s 40s blues. Piedmont and Delta. And you know all those blind musicians? Blind Lemon Jefferson, Blind Boy Fuller, Blind Willie McTell, Blind Blake, Blind Willie Johnson (and there were many blind that did not put it in their name). They went blind from drinking canned heat. The fuel in the "Sterno" cans because they were broke and they knew it was alcohol. It would give them a high, but also, blindness.Â
