• “Battery acid” is a well-known term due to rechargeable lead-acid batteries in cars. However, most AAs are alkaline, on the other side of the pH scale.

  • Most consumer single use batteries like that are alkaline chemistry these days, not acidic. You can still find the old carbon-zinc ones in really really cheap batteries but it’s not as common.

    They’re super tasty either way

  • I sometimes have dreams that I’m eating batteries. Like I’m biting through them like they’re made of cake. And I’m like, “What am I doing? This will kill me! Lol” and then I wake up very confused.
