  I mean, you can heat any old rock & make it look like that … what I’m saying is that every rock, when heated to like 500+°C, will gain orange flavour!!

    I wanna taste that blue Cherenkov tang

      Evidently plutonium just tastes metallic. And radium is flavorless.

      What I’m saying is people have tasted these things.

      The food colouring they add to the orange juice (from those pods) makes it actually taste better!

      I wanted to say the same - that blue color reminds me of blueberry with some mint for freshness!

  “From a purely chemical standpoint, (plutonium) is about as poisonous as lead and other heavy metals. Not surprisingly, it has a metallic taste.”

  • uservoid1@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I was about to say that in the 40s and 50s someone probably taste it.

    The best way to tell precisely how spicy your rock is, is to taste it. That’s just basic science, if you ask me.

    Given that lead acetate is sweet, would plutonium acetate do the same?

    anyone wants to help me set up a charity where we give “last meals” to terminal patients using toxic ingredients just for them to describe how they taste?

  Fun fact: a gram of plutonium contains about 20 billion calories. Yum.

    And it goes straight to my hips. By which I mean the bone marrow in my pelvis.

      These hips don’t lie : you got cancer

      Hey, sexy bone-marrow pelvis, shake them atomic gains!

      Why the pelvis specifically? How did it get there? What were you doing with it?

    Not dietal calories.

    The calorie numbers we assign to food, measure how much energy our body extracts from them when eaten.

    In this context, plutonium is closer to 0

    source

    • atomicorange@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Technically it measures how much you can heat up a known volume of water if you burn the food. We have no way of measuring how much of that energy released by combustion actually gets absorbed and translated to ATP in the body, but it’s the best estimation of the relative energy content of foods.

      There’s some carbohydrates, proteins, and fats that our bodies don’t seem to convert to energy (or only partially convert) but still contain calories because they’re combustible. Sugar alcohols, fiber, etc.

      Plutonium doesn’t combust, but it would heat up water in a calorimeter. Really the test method’s applicability kind of falls apart when you start testing undigestible materials.

      This is actually an issue with food calories as well. Wood shavings give a high reading in a bomb calorimeter but you can't process them into energy. Same with lots of fiber. And ethanol, in some cases.

    Equivalent-level of fun fact: 1 gram of hay contains that much calories too!

  Isn’t it just that color because it’s hot? Like, if you cooled those off to room temperature, wouldn’t they be metallic gray?

  source

  • shalafi@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Cooling down means it’s breaking down and no longer plutonium.

    source

    • logicbomb@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I’m talking about thermally cooling it down. If you put it in a freezer it will cool down, but the nuclear process will not speed up.

    You mean plutonium doesn’t look like a vial of cherry flavored cough syrup suspended in a larger vial of water?

      The fact that Thorium and Uranium are just “probably not a good idea” makes me think that the scale is based on licking like an ore that contains them rather than the pure element

    In order to lick something at the very least it needs to be liquid, or better yet, solid.

    Trying to kick hydrogen, with this in mind, will be the last lick you ever do in your life

  Yes, it does look delicious.

  But I can’t help but think about this being the consequences of dying everything we eat unholy colors. Maybe radioactive material wouldn’t be so tasty looking if we didn’t give kids candy that looks like radioactive material.
