Does Dynamite contain Nuts?

By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

was the question my son asked this morning, after I replied back with "What?" he continued to tell me about a sign that was up in the school hall, so I said "no son, dynamite does not contain nuts", then he said, but why was the sign up then, I asked was there any pictures relating to this, he said no, so after much banter between him and myself, I finally got him to tell me exactly where in the hall it said this, he answered, "just by the canteen", so the sign actually read "Dinner Might Contain Nuts"

Kids eh

Is Dynamite Made Of Peanuts???

Alfred Nobel was born in Stockholm in 1833. He was a chemist, engineer, innovator, armaments manufacturer and an enthusiastic devotee to the study of explosives.

In 1866 Alfred Noble invented Dynamite which he patented in 1867.

When he died in 1896, Alfred Nobel left behind a nine million dollar endowment fund. The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded yearly to people whose work helps humanity.

Upon his death in 1896 , Nobel had amassed a significant fortune. Along with the proceeds of dynamite, he held 355 patents in the fields of electrochemistry, biology, optics, and physiology. It was certainly more than enough with which to set up a fund known as the Nobel Peace prize as set out in his final will.

But back to the peanuts.

So, how exactly are peanuts involved in dynamite?

Dynamite is made from Nitroglycerine

Nitroglycerine, also known as trinitroglycerin, and glyceryl trinitrate, is an oily, explosive liquid made by nitrating glycerol.

So nitroglycerine is made from glycerol.

Glycerol or glycerine, is a viscous liquid used in soap, cream, and food.

Glycerol is made of……….Peanut oil!

Peanut oil of course being made of peanuts!

So there you have it! The principle ingredient of dynamite is peanuts!

In fact you could conceivably concur that without peanuts, there very possibly would never have been a Nobel Peace Prize.
