hamburgers are hamburgers and cheeseburgers are cheeseburgers and cheeseburgers are hamburgers but hamburgers arent cheeseburgers

No ham in hamburgers. Its all beef unless you add bacon, thus making a baconburger.

I guess you could put ham ON a hamburger, but you'd have a conundrum deciding on what to call it. You'd have to break the defacto naming standard of [topping]burger, unless it were also an cheeseburger, in which case you could call it a hamcheeseburger. But you'd still have to explain to everyone that no, you really did say that right.

There is about as much usable energy in three eggs as in a stick of dynamite.

One stick of dynamite releases about 1MJ of energy when it explodes, which is roughly equal to 240 kCalories. And one egg contains about 80 kCalories.

A gram of Uranium has 19 million calories! :P

Now, if we wanna get nuclear, everything has positively absurd amounts of usable energy.

Indeed. A Squirrel has about 23 MEGATONS of energy. :P

What do you mean by usable energy? Is there any theoretically known or practical method that you can use to unlock all the energy contained in some mass and use it for work?

It's just how wild physics is.
Every single object has a potential energy.
A 200 pound human has about 5 Gigatons of potential energy in them.

The only way to reach that potential is to either throw antimatter at matter, or to accelerate something to near the speed of light.

It's the implication of e = mc^2. Matter is just another form of energy.

In other words, not all of this rest energy is usable. To release all this absurdly huge amount of energy you need to supply absurd amount of energy equal to all the different binding energies down to the quark level combined. Even if you can find anti-matter, the energy required to store and contain it is huge, so in the end you probably will not get a net gain of energy from converting matter to pure energy.

Thanks, I've broadened my understand of chemistry slash physics today.
