no, they were invented by Kingsford with Henry Fords help: https://www.kingsford.com/our-story/kingsford-history/

This was an interesting story that I didn't know about until 2022.

AvE tested the ash of briquettes, and they're 10% non-flammable leavings (dirt, rocks, sand and crusher finings). Commenters also pointed out that coal and lime are added to the mix. Lump charcoal is superior. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7Rmzr3lkJs

Actually, they’re anti-Semitic. I’d still go with real charcoal though.

I prefer lump charcoal. It's about the only thing I use. I have had to try a lot of them to get the taste I like but I feel like they are better than any briquettes I've used before.

As @Fumduck stated both have their use cases but for your casual backyard grilling lump is superior.
