On a more seriuos not, when I went to NYC last week I went
to this really cool bar with drinks that had this fog pouring out
of them. I asked the bartender about it and he said it was
liquid nitrogen.

I went to Lowes and Home Depot but neither of them had it.
Neither did the kitchen accessory store at the mall. Where do
you get this stuff? Any recipes?

NASA has some. Maybe you could see if they're selling.

btw - liquid nitrogen is quite often used in molecular gastronomy -
think Alinea, for example.

Ammonia is NH3 and nitrogen N2.

NH3 is commonly referred to as "liquid nitrogen" - this to distinguish
it from "dry nitrogen" which you can commonly find in lawn and garden
stores.

Yet another person who is unfaimiliar with the actual production of
food.

it may be called, in slang, "liquid nitrogen" but it really is simply a
liquid form of nitrogen fertilizer. It is NOT liquid nitrogen. DUH.

is "chicken of the sea" . . . well, never mind.

I bet I have been farming longer than you have. If you ask at a coop for
"liquid nitrogen" they will not give you nitrogen gas that has been cooled
to a liquid state. Now you are just being a droll troll.

Maybe if you explained to the representative from the troll group that you
were not talking about the liquid form of nitrogen gas which only exists at
deep low temperatures, but rather a high nitrogen fertilizer in liquid form
which exists at room temperature, you both would not be wasting your time.
Errr... check that, the troll group rep will just waste time on something
else.

But liquid nitrogen *is* used in the production of food beyond the farm, and
it is not fertilizer. Yet another person who is unfamiliar with the actual
production of food.
