Default E-Field across MEAT

OK. Not quite about antennas, but before 1960 such very non-UL devices
existed. Since my dorm room had a 120/208 system, and students in those
days actually knew what that was, with a different phase on one side of the
room than on the other side of the room, one could zap a dog in a short
period of time with a cross connection. .... and I still have all of my
digits and such. Learning took place in multiple places - in those days.
Of course, one needed to survive....

In the 1960s, a product for cooking hotdogs (10cm) was sold. It
consisted of exposed metal prongs that penetrated to each end of the
hot dog, and were, in turn, plugged into the wall. Net result: in 3
minutes you had a broiled hot dog from 12V/cm.

I remember that: It was called the "Hot Dogger". It worked quite well.
Oscar Mayer hot dogs and the like are assisted in the hot dog zap-
cooking process by the large amount of electrolyes (salt content) used
in processing the "meat". It was a resistive heat cooking process of
course, nothing exotic, but 12V/cm it was.
