Well, if you were to do that and shake it vigorously...

I know, too much and I have a dry ice bomb of sorts. Still, I wonder if
just enough would
do the trick? Think of the possiblilites, your own carbonated orange
juice or lemonaid.

You realize that there are carbonators that use little CO2 cartridges to do
exactly that. I used to have one but the novelty wore off.

Oh yes, I've used CO2 cartridges for years to inflate bicycle tires when away from home.
Some enterprising individual modified an inflator to blow a dry ball out of muzzle
loaders. I think that is the term when you ram the bullet or ball and patch w/o adding
the powder first. Sucks, btdt.
