Home made as in made at home. Not in the bix of killing things.
It's pretty fantastic though. Made quick bacon out of a porkloin since we were out of the real stuff. Crazy good.
Raw meat?

In Minecraft, or Real life?

I saw claims that isn't a type of butane, but butane is a specific carbon molecular structure, a 4 carbon chain wrapped in hydrogen, whle TBHQ, being a phenol, is a carbon ring with 2 hydroxyl groups and a 3 prong carbon tail (this is where my chemistry knowledge fails me; it actually failed me way before, which is why I was looking up everything. If it was up to par, I could tell you the structure just by reading the name of the chemical. Chemistry is impressive like that).
Is it a dangerous compound? Yes. Is it dangerous in McNuggets? I don't think so; the FDA and the EFSA don't seem to think so.
EDIT: I realize you never specifically mentioned Butane, but I assumed that's what you meant since butane is the chemical in lighter fluid and as it turns out, a lot of people are saying TBHQ is a butane.
Well, that's 3 prong carbon tail I mentioned earlier, turns out, that's a tertiary Butyl group and is derived from an isomer of butane. So, in a way, yes, it has butane in it (not the normal isomer, though), but it's not quite the same thing. Technically, water has hydrogen in it, but it's not going to light up like the Hindenburg.
Spoiler:
To be technical, i'd call butane lighter fuel, as in it's unpressurized form it exists as a gas it ignites as a gas as iirc it's boiling point is right around the freezing point of water, thus it's only a liquid while under pressure. Try using a Bic in -20 weather sometime. If you look at a bottle of lighter fluid like for a Zippo, you'll see it's a light petroleum distillate, usually naptha. It's transmitted via capillary action, evaporated at the wick, and the gaseous form is ignited. Fluids, generally, are fairly stable, it's the vapors that combust.
Can you believe someone made bacon vodka?

This is true.

Yes. If there is a flavor of something, there's probably a vodka to go with it.
HankTheCowdog wrote:What kind of books do you read?
In fiction, almost entirely Sci-Fi and Fantasy. I'll sometimes go outside the genres in leiu of a classic, but it's hard for me to feign interest in anything else.
For non-fiction, I love me Science (especially astrophysics and theoretical physics) something fierce. Krauss, Tyson, Kaku. Love it. Got back from a lecture by Dr. Michio Kaku yesterday and picked up his latest book and got it signed, too. Some people like actors, and some like singers. I like scientists.
I've also been starting to get into history text, too. Started on Julius Caeser's Gallic Wars and it's really interesting.

I've never played either, but I recall Earthbound being recommended to me, so sure, let's roll with that one.

I've never actually heard of Seth Andrews, but I love hearing Dillahunty work his magic. And by magic, I mean empirically supported logic.
Pepsi or Coke?[/quote]
I enjoy both, but Coke's marketing department wins out. Coke mixes better, too.

Civ 4 or 5?
I've been told the correct answer to this question is "2," but let's stick to the parameters of the question

Civ 2 is great, but I do prefer Civ IV and Civ V.
Civ IV is great, it really is. I love it, and it's one of the best there is, but I'm more likely to find myself starting up a Civ V game than I am a Civ IV game, so I'm going with V.
Why must you make me choose? It's like a really tame Sophie's Choice.

Um.
Shadows of Mordor : Assassins Creed
Guardians of Middle Earth : League of Legends
Actually, as the trailer went on, it seemed better than just an AC knock off. I'd give it a chance. Hope it's better than War in the North.

I watched the trailer and thought "please don't suck, please don't suck."
Apparently the guy who helped code the air assassinations of ACII saw it and found it eerily similar. However, he's also hopeful the better mechanics of the AC series could make something awesome. I'm.... Hesitant. I really, really want it to work, especially with the Nemesis system...
