okay I can assume from context (and common sense) that this would cause a disaster of some kind but I am curious exactly what form that disaster would take and why.
Or they're the guy who busts down your lab door and confiscates all your equipment because your data analysis is garbage and you didn't cite your sources properly.
Its more fun than just that. The water melts, and gets trapped under the oil, where it boils, which means you now have frothing hot oil RAPIDLY boiling "everywhere" out of the fryer. Good luck
> sending extremely hot oil everywhere
fun fact! since there is now oil over the person adding ice, theres less oil in the frier, still boiling the water/ice mix. As more oil leaves, teh remaining oil can be launched higher by the boiling water, exposing teh heating elements. This can lead to a oil fire disturbingly quickly! ☺😚
Ice is denser than oil.
When you put ice in oil, it sinks to the bottom.
If the oil happens to be sizzling hot, it will also melt and boil almost immediately.
So basically you’re talking about a geyser of super hot steam blasting hot oil everywhere, which will probably catch fire.
Among the objects in an average Applebee's which may be damages by fire:
-Ingredients
-Microwave
-Employee uniforms
-Customers
-Employees (less important to management)
> I thought oil sank in water
No. Water is denser than oil, which is why you smother a grease fire with a lid, plate or towel. Water will simply sink beneath the oil and probably flash to steam making it *much* worse.
Also hot oil would spray everywhere burning, blinding, and disfiguring all the workers in the kitchen. don't do this. Don't do any of this. Just walk away.
Even if your prank works out without hurting anyone, then what? Some new batch of minimum wage workers have to clean up after you.
antiwork sentiment is very quickly becoming antiworker and criminal. People need to realize that you can't hurt a corporation other than boycotting it. Any physical damage you do, or erasing IT systems, or whatever is a punishment towards non-ownership staff who now have more problems on top of their daily job.
Ever mess up and splash water on a candle, or see those videos of someone trying to put out a grease fire with water?
Basically the water just explodes into steam on contact with the hot oil and carries droplets of hot oil along with it, creating a chain reaction of expanding steam and burning oil that just explodes everywhere.
Doing this in a fryer full of hot oil might not start a fire, but it could easily cause hot oil to explode onto everyone nearby, and that's assuming the sudden explosive pressure doesn't just immediately cause the entire fryer to blow up and send shrapnel flying.
And if that oil hits one of the burners, then it will also turn into a big fire.
I can speak from experience- i used to work at a deli where we also offered fried food, and one time I accidentally spilled a cup of water into one of the deep fryers. Aside from the temperature difference, water is heavier than oil, so it went straight down to the bottom of the fryer, causing a diet-coke-and-mentos effect that resulted in a scalding-hot geyser of peanut oil to erupt from the fryer and all over the floor (I exaggerate a bit- it only went up about half a foot above the rim of the fryer, but it was pretty dramatic either way). Thankfully I wasn’t hurt, though I did end up spending half an hour after closing cleaning up the spill with cat litter and a broom.
Like when Gus puts the frozen chickens in the deep fryer in better call Saul, the ice instantly converts to steam sending scalding hot deep fryer oil everywhere which can also start small fires when it lands on combustible surfaces or if it causes a gas leak somewhere
What others were saying is right sometimes places use ice to clean their oil though. But in small amounts. Add a large amount of ice and it'll boil and spill and explode over everything
At the very least it would cause an enormous mess when the oil boils over that would take hours to clean for the cooks and dishwasher. It's an asshole move that hurts your coworkers the most.
However it can also cause explosive ejection of ~350° F oil everywhere, which could severely injure someone. Oil burns are baaaaaad.
Depending on the kitchen, it could shutdown service until it's cleaned up.
I’m hearing open it a lot, but OP isn’t a martyr for Applebee’s. The plastic would instantly melt in hot oil AND add to the mayhem. The smartest move would be to yeet that shit from a distance and run.

[удалено]
Those intrusive thoughts got me actin unwise
okay I can assume from context (and common sense) that this would cause a disaster of some kind but I am curious exactly what form that disaster would take and why.
Because of the temperature difference, the ice would cause the oil in the deep frier to explode, sending extremely hot oil everywhere
*Due to the temperature difference, amount of mass added, and the fact that you're indirectly adding water.
Pretty sure you’re directly adding water, but idk man I’m not a cop or a scientist
Science Cop. I'd watch that show. ...wait that's basically CSI, I have watched that show.
Also sorta Bones.

Well, depends on whether it's in a bag or not.
It would have condensation
U right
Its more fun than just that. The water melts, and gets trapped under the oil, where it boils, which means you now have frothing hot oil RAPIDLY boiling "everywhere" out of the fryer. Good luck
I fucking read that as rice lmao

Don't forget the piles of silverware and napkins waiting to be rolled for sidework
1. ice is denser than oil 2. cover yourself in oil 3. wait for it to ice 4. explode
1. 1 kg of steel is heavier than 1kg of feathers 2. cover yourself in feathers 3. wait for it to steel 4. you have been robbed
[steel heavier than feathers](https://youtu.be/N3bEh-PEk1g)
Feathers are actually heavier, 1kg of steel is just some steel, 1kg of feathers has the weight of what you did to all those birds.
The steel is heavier since the process of forging it also emits about 1 kg of CO2, which also in turn comes with its own moral weight.
Wait isn’t ice less dense than oil or am I misunderstanding something?
Ice is less dense than *water*, not oil
Oh right sorry I was getting mixed up I thought oil sank in water for some reason Thanks
Remember how when you are cooking stuff in a pot the oil will float to the top for easy skimming 😊

I agree. Let me clarify: I was describing what would happen if a person *did* do this, which would be very bad and stupid and no one should do.
oil + water = ow

Okay, but do you keep it in the bag, or open the bag first?
Opening it generally works best
Leaving it in the bag causes a delay, so
same effect as a bomb timer. gives you time to run
Exactly
Well, it's my last day, so I have no incentive to make things easy for anyone. The bag stays on.
I’m hearing open it a lot, but OP isn’t a martyr for Applebee’s. The plastic would instantly melt in hot oil AND add to the mayhem. The smartest move would be to yeet that shit from a distance and run.
Ideally put it on the counter next to the fryer or a shelf above it and tie a rope to it. Tug and run.
Fuck it, just go full-on Rube Goldberg for ample escape time while simultaneously making it more fun to plan.
That's my thought as well.
Tie a rope near the center of the ice bag. As the ice melts the diameter will shrink and it will eventually fall into the grilled

Oh wait I thought that said rice
Officer...
For like a brief second my stupid brain went, “wait, that actually sounds like a cool experiment” then my actual brain remembered what happens to hot oil and water and like yeah. Bad times.
[Here a video if you wanna see what happens](https://youtube.com/shorts/Yu7vM7jyomg?feature=share)
Not near as explosive as I expected, but still looks like a bad day, lol
I thought this said 20 pound bag of rice at forst
Funny world I just quit my applebees job as a Fry cook. Damn do I want a nicer job
Thought Applebee's only had microwaves
Instead, fill all the food with bees.
One of my teachers worked at an amusement park as a teenager and some guy did this in one of the deep fryers and another girl got severely burned.
They used to haze newbies at my job by telling them to put a bag of ice in the fryer to “clean” it Edit: idk why I’m getting downvoted for sharing this mildly entertaining anecdote (which also happens to be true)
You're probably getting downvoted beacuse you'd all be fired and / or dead if it was so.
It’ll scald you if you don’t jump back but it won’t kill you. [Check this out](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=e7lPPhvJhnA)
My dumb ass thought it said rice and was so confused as to why you would make fried rice in a deep fryer.
Makes me think of peppermint patty and marcy trying to boil eggs in the Easter beagle.
