Deep Frying Wood.
OK timber gets heated and immersed in AIR and STEAM etc., and treated to assorted moisture levels, including pressure treatments with creosote and assorted biocides etc., .
But I was thinking, is there any advantage in drying or treating timber by slow frying it? (under vacuum?)
It's probably a foregone conclusion that unless the step of extracting all the oil from the wood, it's only going to be good for bolting and pinning together.
But I had the marvelous experience of eating some vegetable chips - which are the expanded version of the banana chips.
Some of the manufacturers are frying under (partial) vacuum - which may explain some things.

The most interesting thing about them was the bean chips, being mostly whole string beans in pod; and the structure of them., as in it was dimensionally mostly all there, with very little shrinkage, and it seemed as if the bean had been "spongified" in that it was light and crisp and yet not hard like a twig.
So I thought - does anyone slow fry their timber? (under vacuum)?
And I look forward to all the suggestions about swapping from potato chips to wood chips... and just how crunchy and yummy they are.
(This is serious - there has to be an advantage in this somewhere...... I mean next time you flush a terd down the toilet, remember that someone somewhere is refining it which you are paying for - and someone else is paying for it and using what came out your #### - to grow their crops, that they sell back to you - so the idea is not to can the idea, the idea is to connect the dots;
To help the matter along a bit, go and buy some of the vegetable chips with the green beans and have a munch on them.... The texture is quite unexpected.
I mean you know they are making bone foundations or replacement / medical implants from carefully incinerated wood.

So what are the opportunities in doing to the wood, what was done to the green beans?)
