What is the oxidizer in candy Caramel? And it sustains it's own combustion without atmospheric oxygen?
I'm not talking about 'rocket-propellant-caramel' which is similar to edible caramel with oxidizer added. You said
"Candy (the stuff you eat) would qualify as a pyrotechnic under that law just as this "propellant" (if you can really call this stuff propellant).
So if you go after candy "motors" you might miss and kill a HUGE industry as candy contains an oxidizer and a fuel.
Try lighting some sometime"
Peanuts and many candies burn great in the air or when mixed with an oxidizer. They are NOT 'solid propellant' which contains fuel and oxidizer.
Perhaps you were playing a word-game with 'propellant' by using that word instead of 'fuel'.
