Default Popcorn, chocolate, eggs answer

Couple of weeks ago, I posted the question, what do popcorn, chocolate and eggs
have in common with each other? No other foods share this.

According to my info...when the microwave was being worked on as a
radar instrument...the researcher had chocolate in his shirt pocket. It
melted. Intrigued by this he got some unpopped popcorn kernels...aimed the
tube toward them and they popped. Then he got an egg and aimed the tube toward
it...and it exploded splattering nearby colleagues. So these three foods
because the first three foods to be microwaved.

I'm glad there was some sort of answer. I began thinking about what a
great new trolling idea this could be. One thinks of 3 disparate foods,
rutabaga, scallops and candy corn for instance. Ask the group to think
of what they have in common that no other food has, then sit back and
watch the fireworks.

Good question. What does this group have in common that no other food has.
I could say PENMART is raw, but he's not the only one.

yet early radar operator would watch bird land in front of the radar set to get
warm and laugh as they dropped to the ground cooked.
