I feel it's like most of the stuff that I did as a kid that is now seen as too dangerous to possibly even consider allowing: if there aren't bodies stacking up or a full ER, it's likely safe. It's also likely a gimmick that has a fair number of asteriskes they don't mention with the times they took a bowlful out, patched the big pot, and started a new soup using the bowlful as continuity. Or maybe they skipped the token gesture altogether.

@DadBodVet Finally found something we disagree on. This is an example of hunter's stew. It's perfectly safe as long as basic culinary precautions are taken, such as bringing the the stew back to the correct temp. and cooling it properly when storing (if not keeping it going perpetually). I enjoy participating in historical re-enactment events and we have used this method for up to a month and not a single case of food poisoning. As we also use the fire to keep us warm during these events, we just keep it on the fire the entire time as there is always someone on fire watch. This used to be a very common practice and there is a reference to a pot of hunter's stew that was started in the 15th century and only ended because they ran out of ingredients because of German occupation during WWII. As far as your comment about the gas running out, how long does it really take you to change a propane canister? 5 minutes, tops? Not long enough for the temp to drop to unsafe levels.

I've heard of quite a few places that have an eternal stew or soup that's been on the fire continuously for years. It used to be far more common a practice than it is today, with most medieval homes in many areas having a porridge on the fire continuously. It was also a common practice in medieval inns and taverns to have a perpetual stew on. Try it before you knock it. It's technology that kept your ancestors alive before the advent of refrigeration.

Apparently you've never heard of Perpetual Stew (aka 'Forever Soup' or 'Hunter's Pot/Stew') Basically it's a stew or soup that is cooked slowly and as servings are taken out, new (and fresh) ingredients (and water) are added. Because of the low & slow style of cooking (think a crock-pot), you can let it go for several hours at a time...assuming you don't have shifts or anything. With regards to keeping it going, it's really a simple matter of keeping the fire's burning. As far as the age of this pot goes, 45 years is rather young. There are some places in Europe where their stew was several hundred years old and only came to an end because of WWI or WWII.

45 years is not a very long time, at least in traditional European standard. This old tradition allowed good taste in times spices were not easily available, thus is no longer common.

Best hamburger ever eaten was from a bar and grill in Denver that had never cleaned the grill, it was never turned off, they just scraped the top after each item was cooked. The seasoning in that grill added to the flavor of the burger. The other extreme culinary experience was in Rota, Spain eating 30 day dry aged beef, just a hunk of beef hanging in the butcher counter refer, that the restaurant cooked to order. Flavor for days, no intestinal distress. In fact the only time I ever got food poisoning was from the reconstituted onions in a McDonalds cheese burger. The whole restaurant (workers, and customers) got food poisoning. To this day I can’t eat onions cooked in my food, the texture is enough. I will pick them out if possible if not I don’t eat it.

Think of this soup like one’s skin. Do you have any skin cells from the day of your birth? No likely. You’ve likely replaced all of your skin cells several times over the course of 40-50 years. This soup is the same. The contents have been replenished several times over the course of 40 years and the likelihood of any original remnants would be microscopic. Considering it’s held at the temperature of a rolling boil, any pathogen older than a few minutes is likely dead and poses no risk.

ALL San-Francsico sourdough, comes from ONE yeast pile. It was almost lost due to the 1906 quake. But in a tiny bakery shop one last piece survived. So any sour dough comes from a yeast culture over 200 years old. :) Don't get me started on classic steak sauce, 400 year old starter..... End of Line.
