The recipe (apparently: I was out) is a jar with a little honey in it that you wish to soften; place in the microwave and accidentally type "20 mins" when you meant "20 secs"; go away and return when the room is full of smoke. But the effect is good.

Eli, that's exactly my reaction. I just bought a liter of H2SO4 just to have a fireworks snake without the fire. Now I'm going upstairs to the kitchen to try this out. I love microwave ovens.......
Read the title of the post, DON't TRY THIS AT HOME", Good thing microwave ovens are cheap at the second hand store.
