Cellulose Memes

Okay, this is BRILLIANT chemistry humor! The meme is playing with the fact that both strawberries and cellulose (what paper is made of) are composed of sugar molecules, but in totally different arrangements! 🍓📝 Strawberry Shortcake's cute little house is made of fructose and glucose sugars, while toilet paper is made of cellulose - which is essentially a chain of glucose molecules linked together. That chemical structure shown is actually cellulose! So technically, you COULD extract the sugar from toilet paper and distill it into alcohol (moonshine). It's just that nobody except a slightly unhinged chemistry nerd would think to do this! 🧪🥃 The real kicker? We've been sitting on a gold mine of potential booze every time we use the bathroom. Science is wild!
