Time to stockpile? Potato Chips

[ma96782]

I had forgotten about that coffee creamer. Remember long ago finding out kids were making some kind of bombs out of the stuff due to how flammable it was. Made me wonder about what it was doing to those who drank a lot of it.

OMG.....you made me wonder.....what happens if?

The United States Chemical Safety Board has a very good video on YouTube documenting combustible dust explosions. Aluminum? Yes. Iron? Virtually anything pulverized will explode as it contains inherent energy and needs only an ignition source.

Yeah...I was joking about the "Or so I've been told"....part of my post.
I do know many things can be used as part of an IED...and do have some experience with the same....
Neat video in any event.

Lays are crap, and for $4.99.
Freds are $1.50 a bag and way better quality.

My favorite is their video regarding a massive refinery explosion in Philly. Impressive sound and graphics.

Potato chips...Fritios ...Doritos extc...
Make for excellent tinder / fire starting material.

They're also carcinogenic.....

 

[Andy54Hawken]

They're also carcinogenic.....

Yes they are indeed.

However....my first post here was simply to say that they are also flammable.
And make for an excellent "field expedient " fire starter / tinder ...cancer causing notwithstanding.

Fire is carcinogenic also.

Fire is carcinogenic also.

If you teach a man how to build a fire....
He will be warm all night.

If you set a man on fire...
He will be warm the rest of his life.....

I remember when McDonalds fries were fried in beef tallow.
until the vegans got wind of it
I long for the good old days!

some experts are saying animal fats are better for you than seed oils

I noticed that lays potato chips are greasy lately
maybe because of the new oil they are using

back in the 90s the company I worked for had a contract to haul potatoes from Qeen creek Az.to Alberta Canada for Frito Lay.
the month of may was potato harvest in Az.
they always sent back sample boxes of chips.
the first time I tasted dill pickle flavor and ketchup flavor

they were better than American chips
for years after anytime I went to Canada I would bring back chips for the family
