The pasta would cook itself
aeronmelon@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Just don’t put the pasta next to the antipasta.

Mmm, yes. I too love eating metals that explode when they touch water. Extra spicy. It does more than double the sodium content of your salt though, so watch out for that if you have high blood pressure.

Instead we should be replacing the sodium with chlorine!

It is kind of funny how, even though I understand how they cancel out, the unification of two very reactive elements makes harmless salt.
Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Hydrogen and oxygen are quite reactive as well.
TheLeadenSea@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
And both water and salt, while vital to human life, are harmful to others. Water is a powerful solvent, and salt can kill snails.
Allero@lemmy.today 1 year ago
They’re just nearly equally reactive in two opposite directions.
You can absolutely make salts with acidic or alkaline properties by altering this careful balance.

This sounds like the next thing we should get people riled up with along with the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide.
propter_hog@hexbear.net 1 year ago
They put unchlorinated salt in the dang dihydrogen monoxide!

Hot take.

I mean if we could get certain people who are deadset on making the world worse to believe this like the do for every other dumb fucking lie (EG: Vaccines and Autism, Fluoride in tap water, etc) this might be productive.
Hestia@hexbear.net 1 year ago
Na, I don’t think so
Objection@lemmy.ml 1 year ago
Personally, I sub out the chlorine for hydrogen and oxygen, which I know are safe because that’s what’s in water. It also helps keep my soup nice and warm whenever I sprinkle it in.
Eating sodium chloride is kind of insane. It would be like if you took my stuff and poured a bunch of hydrochloric acid on it and then sprinkled that all over your food. Yeah, no thanks.

That’s right keep telling yourself that.

You just know getting that to happen was the absolute peak crowning achievement of some bureaucrat’s career.

Naw the army was dumping all kinds of stuff after WWII. They had built up so much material that this would be a unknown rubber stamp action without that film.
