And cigarettes, lighters, welders, etc.  It's the most ridiculously bullshit tactic.

Here is an idea,...

Work with your teammate-blob if there is one,...
One absorbs the item,...

And if there is none - quickly use the fire-resistance-membrane to expand beyond.

Note that you can directly target items on the ground with blob attacks to break them iirc

I know you can do this with large items that block spreading (although frankly it's unreliable as hell even with attack upgrades) but I don't recall ever doing it to small items.  I'll have to try the next time I roll blob, but even if it does work I don't think it's remotely sufficient in dealing with how utterly bullshit lit candles/cigarettes are.
