With a hot Jacob's Ladder arcing angrily between a pair of wires, hackers Rafael and Max put a thoroughly modern spin on the traditional cheese plate by sending a few thousand volts through a grape and a piece of fromage in this video. Frankly, I'm surprised this isn't served tableside at molecular gastronomy destinations like Alinea, WD-50 and El Bulli — I'm sure Le Sanctuaire will be stocking Jacob's Ladders shortly, if they don't already. Note that the two chefs wear goggles to protect their eyes and non-conductive wooden chopsticks to hold the food. What they don't offer is a taste test. They do, however, offer a winking "Don't try this at home." From coffee warming coils to hot dog electrocutors, what are your favorite ways of cooking with juice?
