Cookbook:Swedish Lemon Angels
Not a real recipe. This is a practical joke from a Penn & Teller book. When you mix in the lemon juice, it will foam all over and make a mess.


 * merge. This is a funny joke. I vote that we append a warning to this page, and then merge it with Wikijunior Big Book of Fun Science Experiments, so that kids can do this stuff, and make a big mess. Or better yet, you can ask the kids "Do you know what will happen?", and then point out that lemon juice + baking soda = fizz. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 04:39, 24 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Merge. Funny, which will make kids remember how this reaction works. Maybe, recreate this page which adds the content back to the main Cookbook, except add a joke notice on top. Pcu123456789 00:45, 25 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Merge if wikijunior wants it, otherwise delete. Kellen T 01:09, 25 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Wait... it is already part of the cookbook. How can we merge something out of a book where it is already accepted and in another book? --Dragontamer 05:59, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * The purpose here is that this cookbook entry is not a valid recipe, but is instead a joke. In fact, i would say it is more akin to a kid-friendly science experiment then a cookbook entry. Moving this entry to wikijunior would simply put this material in a more appropriate place. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 18:15, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
 * If it's not a valid recipe for a cookbook, then maybe it should be in the Wikijunior Big Book of Fun Science Experiments. Eventually we can get a chemist to do a kid-friendly explanation of what's happening. Yes? Andrew Watt 19:55, 3 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Added vfd tag. Please do remember to use vfd when sending something here. --Kernigh 03:29, 21 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Bleh. Someone just delete this already. There's no one defending the article, I'm pretty sure wikijunior doesn't want it. And it's a joke, not a real recipe. Kellen T 09:34, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Deleted. Wikijunior does have other modules explaining the reaction between acids and baking soda. We don't need kids to learn this simple lesson by creating a large mess in their parent's kitchen. I've deleted this one, but any dissenters can feel free to dispute this action on WB:VFU. --Whiteknight (talk) (projects) 23:07, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
