Though intriguing, this conclusion is not supported by their data. Did they test pure ethanol? No. Did they test various concentrations of ethanol? No. Did they include controls without ethanol, but with effervescence, such as a non-alcoholic beer (e.g. Coors Cutter)? Again, no.<BR/><BR/>Without these essential experiments and controls, we are left to conclude that consuming Pop Rocks with some kinds of ethanol may indeed be awesome, but question of safety remains unanswered and open to debate.Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14276368203162873300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1676963890380083425.post-17064088733524781672008-07-12T14:28:00.000-07:002008-07-12T14:28:00.000-07:00We were sitting out on Ada's deck drinking some wi...We were sitting out on Ada's deck drinking some wine after dinner and she fessed up to having spent a lot of money at a candy shop. She brought out the loot and it proceeded from there. I can't remember how pop rocks came up, I know we were listening to "Purple Rain" so maybe we were just caught up in the 1980s!<BR/><BR/>What would you like to debunk, kspace?Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13147685696055275614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1676963890380083425.post-43754136959840369882008-07-12T13:11:00.000-07:002008-07-12T13:11:00.000-07:00More blogxperiments!
