?? for the other old farts re: peanuts diving in beer

[BahamaMama]

help.......can't find anything about it online.

took dad to dinner tonight, and he was trying to show the kids something....LOL

he threw a handful of peanuts into a glass of beer (and said he remembers them diving at a fairly fast pace) he just didn't remember how long they had to be in there before they started diving and resurfacing. then when they didn't do it very often, he can't remember if maybe it can't be lite beer......THEN he can't remember for sure if it's supposed to be POP rather than beer....anyone know or remember anything like this??

Basic mothball and raisin theory -

A truly silly trick if you happen to have some mothballs. Mostly fill a glass jar with water. Add a little vinegar - 1/4 to 1/3 cup (60 ml) - add 2 tsp. (10 ml) of baking soda. Stir gently. Add a few mothballs. As long as their surfaces stay fairly rough, they should begin to bounce up and down. This will also work quite well using clear soda water with the mothballs.

Raisins and alka-seltzer or clear soda will perform the same way. The irregular surfaces on the mothballs or raisins hold some of the carbon dioxide bubbles. When enough bubbles accumulate to lift the weight of the mothball (or raisin), it rises to the surface. Some of the air bubbles escape into the atmosphere, and the mothball/raisin, which is denser than the water or soda, sinks to the bottom to start the cycle over again. The effect will last longer if the container is sealed, as less carbon dioxide will be able to escape.
