Ah, But...My favourite toy when I was young was a length of mains cable with a 3 pin plug at one end, and bare wires at the other.
If you put a small piece of aluminium foil between the live and neutral, plug it in and flick the switch... big flash of vapourised ally!
Put that in a bowl of petrol... big flash plus flames!
Gunpowder from Dad's shotgun cartridges... prolonged flash!
My biggest regret is that I never thought to try cooking a sausage with a wire in each end.

What's to stop you trying the sausage thing now?No need for any regrets!
I await your findings with anticipation...
