I'm Iranian, I know those. Many years ago, before gas lines were widespread we bought gas for cooking and heating in those kinds of canisters. You can still find them in use in many places, especially if used with a cooking valve top it is a great portable cooking station for vacations

    This is the biggest copy of this image I could find online, I'm familiar with similar camping stoves, and the bit coming out of the top doesn't look like the attachment for cooking. Possibly for refilling? What an odd thing to pose with though, they look like that meme of US cops standing around that table with a bowl, like 3.5g of weed, and like $24.

    Old style stovetop

    We used to hook something like this to those, back in the old days

    There are also these, which hook directly intp the canister valve:

    There are also other utilities for these, like heating and even gas powered lamps! Very useful for camping, even tho they're pretty heavy
