Exothermic Cooking? Using Calcium Oxide to boil an egg.
Exothermic Cooking has been around for a very long time. Essentially mixing chemicals together to create an exothermic reaction hot enough to cook food to a safe temperature. Things like MRE (meals, ready to eat) have been used by militaries and survivalists around the world for years. Let's mix Calcium Oxide with water and see if we can get it hot enough to cook us dinner. note Calcium oxide is dangerous to play with, Calcium oxide experiments are highly caustic and exothermic, Please use safe practices and wear all the appropriate safety gear.
