    Did the potato too, and the engine couldn’t start, the potato just blocked the exhaust.

    Man I heard about the sugar in the gas though, one of those rumors of the day back then I guess.

    I also heard about dig a hole and put fertilizer around dynamite to augment the destructiveness, and that seems to be correct.

    🤷🏼‍♀️

      That’s because nitrates are the main component in both fertilzer and explosives. We’re so lucky plants convert the nitrates to non-explosive forms, otherwise cooking would be a high risk activity.
