Blastos

"Icy fresh sweet treats that, when added to a bubbly, sugary beverage cause voluminous explosions."

- Description of Blastos.

Blastos is one of the many craftable items presented in Oddworld: Soulstorm.

Overview
Blastos are polo-mint style candy that create a fizzing reaction in carbonated beverages, they are the equivalent and reference to real-world Mentos.

They are a relatively late-game ingredient, appearing in Slig Barracks and can be bought within a Blastos Vendo. By itself it has no use as it is only meant to combine with Fizzy Pop to create Fizzy Pow.

Trivia

 * The act of combining Blastos with Fizzy Pop to create a spectacular explosion is a reference on how the chemicals within Mentos creates a volatile reaction with the carbonated ingredients in soft drinks; i.e. rapid nucleation of carbon dioxide gas bubbles precipitating out of the solution which builds pressure until it erupts.
