this is great. fun fact, ether was used as an anaesthetic in the 1900s for dental practice and surgeries and the like before more stable and less harmful substances were found and/or created.

Pretzels. The sheen/gloss on commercial pretzels (in a lot of cases) is formed by using lye. Lye itself is very hazardous and can be deadly however, the reaction between it, heat and the CO2 in the dough renders it safe to eat. Also; Trust me, you don’t want to milk taken for their butter...your arms may fall off...

It's as if Eva is trying to get us to help take our those in a position of power... Maybe we should keep an eye on her? Nah, I'm sure I'm over thinking it. Enjoy the festivities!

Funny you mention this as my friend and I were farming reckoning for spare rations and mentions the amount of taken butter enough to be diagnosed with diabetes to whoever eats it, but turns out taken butter will kill you I don't know if I should be impressed lol

[quote]<This is a topic that's been bothering me for a while for the dumbest reasons. If you live under a rock or are otherwise tired of doing Destiny activities and know nothing of the Dawning, then buckle up. Throughout the event, you have to bake goods for various characters, and while most of it SOUNDS good, most of them are inedible. I don't mean that they don't taste good, I mean that the ingredients used to make them are poisonous... MOST of the ingredients are poisonous. In fact, only one of them isn't, and you won't believe which one it is. OK maybe you will, let's move on. [b]Ether Cane[/b] Despite being the first ingredient you get when you start the quest to masterwork Eva's oven and make your life a whole lot easier as you mercilessly torture yourself grinding double XP bounties just so you can get your hands on some good looking armor, it's poisonous. That's right, Ether, the gas that the Fallen have to breathe in order to survive, is poisonous to humans. Not to mention that Ether itself is very hard to contain since it dissipates very quickly. So, not only are you going around trying to catch a gas within moments of being released, but you are also infusing it into what I assume would be a sugar cane given the item's icon. While it is poisonous, I'm not sure it can really kill you, but it won't be a fun time after ingestion. [b]Dark Ether Cane[/b] Unlike Ether, which may or may not kill you, Dark Ether WILL kill you. It's easier to catch, now that it takes longer to dissipate and just hangs around like a moist cloud, but that's how it tricks you. It's Ether mixed with Blight, and has proven to kill regular Fallen just like Blight on its own kills people. Basically, don't drink/inhale Fikrul's blood. [b]Cabal Oil[/b] I don't know who in their right mind thought that the programmable oil in a Cabal's pressurized suit would make for a good ingredient to bakery items, but they made it a thing. That's right, you're going around, murdering Cabal, and then scooping up the oil in their suits. Delicious, right? Like the oil we have, it will cause damage to your body, whether minor or major depending on how much you ingest. [b]Chitin Powder[/b] This is gathered by taking Hive armor and grinding it into a fine, well, powder. Believe it or not, that's actually not going to poison you. However, I wouldn't recommend eating it because it's not the meat of a Hive. Like crabs in real life, you eat what's protected by the armor, not the armor itself. [b]Vex Milk[/b] Do I even have to explain why this is bad? Do I have to remind you of Kabr, the Titan who drank that shit and was promptly converted from the inside into a Vex unit? He's still a Vex, by the way, just thought you should know so you don't get surprised if we see him again. Do you want to have your blood replaced with Radiolaria and your organs reworked into wires and tubes? Your skin and bone structure reworked into a metal frame and chassis? Just a reminder that Vex chassis are made with a copper or bronze-like metal, and it's likely that the Radiolarian fluid will use those metals found in your blood to armor you up. [b]Taken Butter[/b] The inspiration behind this waste of a post. What the -blam!- even is Taken Butter? We could take this literally or... less literally, and the latter more or less depends on what the Taken themselves are covered in. What gives a Taken their color? Are they supernaturally colored or are they smeared in Blight? If the latter, then I guess people are going around with spoons to scrape that shit off. Not only is that a little disgusting, but as previously mentioned, Blight will kill you. But what if that's not the case? Well then what the hell is it? Are we making butter with Taken ingredients? Who's getting the Taken milk? HOW does one get the Taken milk? I doubt a Wizard's going to let you. Seriously what the -blam!- is this thing?>[/quote] I just imagine after every mouth full, ghost has a resurrection to perform.

This is one of the best informational posts I’ve ever seen. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go milk a Taken and make some butter…

This was pretty funny. Maybe Granny's magic oven removes the toxins somehow?

Just gonna be the one to point out. We deliver these to vendors we visit most of the time. Most of these are harmful in someway....any one else notice how tess doesn't get a cookie?

Seems like Eva got some inspiration from Harry Potter's Bertie Botts Beans ("Ewwww, i got radiolarian pudding *cough, cough* what do you got?") and abuses our ghost's ability to revive us, like Drifter does for gambit D:

I thought cabal oil was cabal sweat

Sshhhhhhh... If we deliver enough of these ‘toxic’ goodies, maybe we can kill a few vendors off...

Ether is just another name for helium. Dark Ether is just zombie helium. Chitin Powder is basically sugar of the sea. Vex Milk is seminal fluid. Taken Butter is likely black putrefaction.

You are just weak willed.

I vote Archival Mind for the title of Mr. Bungie. Most entertaining posts for the past 2 years, a light in the muck of the Bungie forums (although most of the complaining is warranted, it gets draining after a while). Bravo Mr. Mind, keep up the good work.

Eva is -blam!-ing crazy. Tslks with the voice of ‘friendly nana-bungie” yet has us baking components of cadavers into holiday treats. Psycho bithch
