The peanut butter you are buying because due to the drought reports are that it is going to go up 40 percent in price soon...or may already have in some places...
Charcoal.... cooking Turkey ?

Well there goes South Africas economy .Is nothing sacred? Or is this a fictional ideal thought up by an ad agency? Just to boost peanut butter sales so the current price increases can be justified.

The downside would be giving your wife a peanut flavored piece of charcoal I suppose. She may ultimatly forgive you.

Charcoal + Peanut Butter + Microwave = Diamonds?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Great teeming masses,

I recently watched a (viral?) video at the URL:
http://revvergoodies.blogspot.com/20...-diamonds.html

It is a promotion for a book entitled "Bling" about the history of hip-hop jewelery. In it, the two authors make diamond-like stones by microwaving peanut-buttered charcoal and then burning off the soot with lighter fluid.

Anyway, I was fascinated by the entire process, and I was told someone here might be able to explain it from a scientific standpoint. What is actually happening here? I know diamonds are formed from coal of course, and that artificial diamonds can be produced from ash/coal in lab settings...but what is actually being formed here? Also, what's with the peanut butter?

Thanks in advance,
Aleatoric
