Chemical synthesis Memes

The escalating madness of salt acquisition! 🧂 What starts as a simple grocery trip spirals into increasingly unhinged chemistry methods. My personal favorite is harvesting tears from failed experiments—been there, collected that! The final panel with Fritz Haber is the chef's kiss of chemical chaos. The progression from "normie" table salt to synthesizing it with cyanide and mustard gas is peak scientist humor. It's the chemical equivalent of using a nuclear reactor to toast your bread when the toaster is right there!
