I received a chafing dish as a wedding gift. I was all of 18 years old and didn't have a clue what a "chafe" was or why one needed a special pan for it. Chafing was something that happened when I wore a shirt that had too much starch in the collar. I finally figured the pan made a passable fondue pot and put it to use for that. I re-gifted it at the first opportunity and now kind of wish I had it back.
