Hey Dave:
At what temperature should I be calcining those puffy white
marshmallows? Don't want no "Mad Cloud Disease".

Hi Wayne,
Actually the store-bought typical Marsh Mallows are
understood to be a vector for transmission of the spongiform
encephelopathy induceing 'prion' oweing to the use of
contaminated bovine derived materials in them.
Or, "Read yer Labels"....(and weep...or cuss the bastards
even...)
Although with Hot Dogs, around the cheery Camp Fire, one
could say one's odds are even 'better'...
Just...for what it's worth...
Lub,

Hot dogs? Oh, I remember those...
but surely you mean "extruded meat by-products"
and we all know what goes into an extruder!
