Talk about a cheap lunch -- learn how to rip a piece off a dollar, eat it, and then make the bill whole again.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A dollar bill
A duplicate bill of the same value in your pocket or wallet

Step 1: Borrow a bill

Ask to borrow a dollar from someone.

Step 2: Fold it

Hold it up horizontally, snapping it noisily to show it's whole. Fold it in half vertically, through the head of the president.

Step 3: Tear it

Start tearing (yes, really tear) the bill at the fold. Go down about an inch.

Tip: Try to tear along a line or pattern on the bill.

Step 4: Pinch it

When you reach the end of the tear, use your thumb to secretly fold and hold the torn section against the back of the bill, away from the audience. Now pretend to rip off the bit with your right fingers.

Tip: Pinching the bill hard with your fingers while you pull them away will make a false "ripping" sound.

Step 5: Chew

Put the imaginary torn piece in you mouth and chew with gusto.

Tip: Forget manners — go ahead and talk as if your mouth is full!

Step 6: Snap

After you've "swallowed," hold the bill in front of your face and snap it open horizontally, while blowing from behind.

Tip: Keep the bill taut and the tear will line up — and the bill will seem to be restored!

Step 7: Switch

Tell your volunteer the dollar was delicious, and put it in your wallet. When she objects, pull out the duplicate bill.

this is a violation of Title 18, Section 333 of the United States Code, which says that “whoever mutilates, cuts, disfigures, perforates, unites or cements together, or does any other thing to any bank bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt issued by any national banking association, Federal Reserve Bank, or Federal Reserve System, with intent to render such item(s) unfit to be reissued, shall be fined not more than $100 or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.”-
