Well here are my thoughts:
You know how when something incredible happens, years later you can remember 
where you were and what you were doing when it happened?  Well, to this day 
I can remember, I was brushing my teeth in Whitewater Canyon the morning of 
April 17, 2008.   What, you don't remember what happened that day, well I 
sure do:  I picked up the wrong clear soda bottle and rinsed out my mouth 
with Heet.

Now, I've been hiking a lot of years, not as many as Steel Eye, but enough 
to have seen and heard and done an awful lot of stuff, but searching my 
memory top to bottom, I do not recall myself or any else having rinsed their 
mouth out with isobutane.

Still, I'm with Brick, the last day I used my canister stove was the first 
day I used my hi-tech, Yogi-endorsed, cat food can alcohol stove.  That way, 
I always know exactly how much mouthwash I have left....
