Bones Aren't All They Are Cracked Up to Be
Here's a question for you:
Why are bone so strong?
Procedure:
- Clean one chicken bone (wing or wishbone).
- Allow the bone to dry over night. Spend a few minutes observing how the bone feels to the touch.
- Get a medium sized jar with a lid.
- Place a chicken wing bone or a wishbone in the jar.
- Pour enough vinegar to cover the bone completely.
- Secure the lid and allow the jar to stand undisturbed overnight.
- Remove the bone and rinse with water.
- Test the flexibility of the bone at this time.
- Refill and repeat procedures for seven days.
- Log your ideas daily. What do you notice from day to day?
Why does leaving the bone in the vinegar change its strength? What is being removed?
