That is what i have in mine and I would cook with them. it spreads the flame out to evenly heat your pan or pot. I think you could cook with out it but your gooing to over heat the pot of pan and maybe damage it. they are cheap so got a set.

I've disovered using pure alcohol causes the bottoms of my pots to blacken, which doesn't occur if you add a little water to the alcohol. Or better yet, use 180-proof rum. It's cheaper, too. Smile
