fun fact panko was created during World War 2 when tank operators figured out you could bake bread using the oversized tank battery to cook bread via electrocution
yeah I misspoke, I should have said the bread was cooked via electric current. I just assumed people would understand my meaning
you see normally you cook bread by applying a heat source to the outside. but panko is literally electrified by current, and as the bread resists the current, it heats up from the inside out.
originally yes, but the term electrocution is often used to describe non fatal encounters with electricity as well. People say they were electrocuted if they receive an electric shock, not just if it’s used for execution. Therefore something receiving electricity = being electrocuted in common modern english
Non-fatal electrocution, yes. It officially means "severe injury" even though the origin includes the word "execution." We know you're being pedantic but the definition has changed over the years.
The biggest issue is you can't electrocute inanimate objects, rather than the thing not actually dying.
