This sounds really interesting, can you explain it further for a layman? (Not being snarky, I genuinely know very little about chemistry)

Come on man, even chemicals react.
Ah, come on, that's essentially chemistry.

We're not all bio-chemists... enlighten us.
Multiple people are having the reaction you are. Is this considered undeserved in the chemistry world?
One could say this about all chemistry.
It's not a legend, it's just chemistry.
