Montreal Gazette - Relax. Your java whitener is not about to explode

(Chemistry professor Joe Schwarcz): "The first thing I do when I get to the office in the morning is check my email. I wade through offers from African widows who want to share their wealth with me. Then I scan the messages from "cutting-edge" doctors, naturopaths and chiropractors whose secret formulas propose to cure me of whatever ailment I may have.

I delete the umpteen warnings about sweeteners, power lines, microwaves, cellphones and rubber duckies, as well as the plethora of messages about chemicals that can either boost or destroy my manhood. And then I'm ready to tackle the interesting stuff -like questions about whether coffee whitener can really explode.

Well, the answer to that, perhaps surprisingly, is yes!"
