Soda Biscuits


Huevos del Toro

Recommended Posts

I was just talking with a gentlemen who used to be a top salesman for a major soda company and he gave me a tip I'd never heard before.

Want biscuits that float off the plate? Replace the milk (on an equal volume basis) with 7-Up! The only caveat is you must eat them while they're hot, otherwise, when they cool, they will become dangerous weapons! :laugh:

Anyone going to try this?

REPORT PLEASE! :biggrin:

I can't see why it wouldn't work. Bubbles are bubbles, no matter what their source is. Baking soda releases CO2 as well as a soft drink would.

Makes sense to me. I don't know about making lemon-lime biscuits, though.

I must be the dummy of all time. I just talked with my bartender and she looked at me like I was from another planet! "What?! You didn't know that?"

No, I didn't. And I thought I'd discovered something new. Go figure. I've obviously led a sheltered life.

Please...go back to what you were doing! :raz:

Gah.

Thank you for participating! :laugh:

It's nearly time to drive down to Hong Kong Market Place.

What's with the "No pictures of the outside of the building"? Inside is OK but not the outside? No pics of the dragon dance? I'll comply but I think it's BS! I'm too damned old to be a rebel again! :laugh:

Righto.

Question:

From FistFullaRoux's comment, is 7-Up supposed to taste of lemon and lime? If so, why doesn't it?
