Improvised recipes. Can I fry eggs in engine oil?

Question

In the 1st & 2 nd world war soldiers were issued with curry powder as a survival kit to eat the odd rat or cook their boots. I,m not asking for advice on how to cook your Timberlands or Doc. Martens, but toothpaste could be used as a substitute for mint in boiled potatoes. So how about battery acid as an alternative to lemon juice? Or can you pickle those onions in sulphuric acid? Saltpeter is a main ingrediant in gunpowder, it is also a preservative, so will bullet cartridges have a place in the survival cuisine? And that engine oil would it have tobe a veg based one like Castrol R, it certainly smells delicious or would a mineral based oil be ok? What are your recommendations? So I can try them on my guests

Answer 1

I wouldn't try ingesting anything that is not produced as food - unless you are a chemist and know the chemical composition of the things you are using (in which case you wouldn't be asking the question).

Answer 2

Answer 3

i would not serve engine oil to travellers till R2D2 and C3PO have been those coming to dinner. Human can no longer tolerate battery acid of their digestive equipment,some human beings placed it out in pans to kills rodents. As for mineral oil-that is use as a laxative is significant-have particularly some lavatory paper and a bathing room close by to your travellers. don't think eveything you learn survival kits or extraordinary possibilities for food products, the outcomes could be risky. difficulty-loose experience tells you that once you're fortunate sufficient to have potatoes why upload toothpaste?

Answer 4

Used engine oil would give them more character

Answer 5

Not a good idea, try using cooking oil.

Answer 7

Sure, it would work to ccok an egg...but I wouldn't eat it.

Answer 8
