Occasionally, while cooking, my wife and I will be in conversation and accidently allow the food to burn. Rather than get angry, we would joke… “We burned the food again.” As my wife is from Europe, she will sometimes “Invent” a word.
Thus, via “Invention” of a word, to make light of a burned meal, the word “Carbonification” was born.
A word search revealed that it was already in the dictionary:
carbonification: English
Noun: carbonification
1. (geology) The conversion of organic plant matter into coal over time

In continutation of our light-hearted approach to this (sometimes) common household activity, we have created Carbonificator.com.
If you have a recipe to share, not intended for Carbonification, we would love to share it.
If you have a story of an accidental Carbonification event, perhaps some photos, we would love to share it.
Have fun, be safe, and Carbonificate with Caution!
