27.) Tolkien was unhappy with all of the people who became hopelessly obsessed with Middle-earth and his books. It upset him when he heard of couples who had LOTR themes for their weddings and other such tributes to his work, because he himself could always part from the world he had created, and take his mind off of it nearly any time he wanted. He was not happy to learn that not everyone could.

To make Pop Rocks, the hot sugar mixture is allowed to mix with carbon dioxide gas at about 600psi. The carbon dioxide gas forms tiny, 600psi bubbles in the candy. When you put the candy in your mouth, it melts and releases the bubbles. What you are hearing and feeling is the 600psi carbon dioxide gas being released from each bubble.
