Yikes.

Is it true tht some chefs literally use Liquid Nitrogen in their food, like the article suggests? I guess tiny quantities that will evaporte away before the guest can eat the food?

t was made popular by celebrity chefs, including Heston Blumenthal, and is completely harmless as a gas.

But if the nitrogen has not burned away fully, as a liquid it has the power to freeze objects in a matter of seconds. Touching the liquid can give you severe cryogenic, or cold, burns.


So it was a shitty bartender, according to the article. Like if you tried to eat pufferfish from someone who doesn't know what they're doing. That sucks.

It can be used safely to flash-freeze stuff inserted into a container of it, but to actually put it into a container of food seems reckless and stupid.

It's used when someone needs to freeze something really fast. Like "oh shit, we're out of ice cream and a customer wants ice cream and no time to make more" people use liquid nitrogen.

It's also used for things like making quick chocolate molds and such.

As for how she was able to drink it? it's a little unintuitive, but your body is so hot, the liquid nitrogen evaporates before touching your skin, however, that cools down the air around your skin slightly and the process keeps repeating until it actually touches your skin at which point you're fucked.

here is a video of a guy sticking his bare hand into liquid nitrogen (DO NOT ATTEMPT)

I... don't think the girl shares any of the blame here. If you get a drink from a bar, you have the right to expect it won't burn right through your stomach.

It's a common "wow" technique used in cocktail bars and fancy restaurants. It's really basic, everything just smokes a lot which looks impressive but otherwise adds nothing to the food and drink.

I've never heard of someone being injured by it before though, and this is really fucking horrible.

Edit: that might not be what you were asking

You can't possibly look someone in the eye and say this isn't misleading (even with the extra S at the end of "drinks")

Fine, you win, it's misleading. I should have said "offers a drink" or something.

I guess this means it's the girl's fault, then.

That they gave her a free drink for her birthday, told her to wait for the nitrogen to finish and she took it early.

Would you be angry at a bar that gave out a free shot and the patron decided to start hitting people?

They have her a drink. Told her to wait and then take it.

Do you side with the woman who sued McDonald's for her coffee being too hot and burning her?

People have no sense of personal responsibility.

If you're hungry and a friend says you can use my stove but don't touch it and you burn your hand off is it your friends fault?

Yes. The coffee was kept far hotter than it was supposed to be. people keep bringing up this example when in fact McDonalds was in the wrong and the courts said so.

Was that the one where the lid wasn't secured and caused the spill or was it actually brewed too hot. Either way I was just making a point and most people remember it as "woman paid millions because coffee was hot".

Im absolutely not. Bartender hands me something and says wait for this then I would wait. Unless it's a cement mixer. I ain't falling for that.

I think the idea of having something like that is dumb to begin with but if it's legal and she was told I don't see how you can fault the bar.

I couldn't remember if it was well past what McDonald's heat for coffee should have been or if it was an unsecured lid. I read on reddit a while back where people were talking about how the case gets used as an example of frivolous when it was actually a good suit.

That said it's used as an example of frivolous and that is was what I was trying to get across. I suppose I could have said do you support someone sueing Starbucks because there coffee was hot and they burned their tongue.

And no I've never made this and it seems crazy to me that it's legal. That said if she was told to wait and didn't and it is legal I don't see why it would be on the bar.

From what the article is saying it sounds like it's safe when it stops giving off the smoke. If handed this and told to wait thats what I would wait for.
