Two of my three are teenagers now, and I completely agree. Not only that, but some of the science projects that my son has inadvertently created by leaving food in places in his room (which is against the rules of course), have had their own interesting odors.

That’s a solid idea… probably better fit for a toaster oven.
If I had perhaps moistened them first it might have worked
You definitely do not want a limp biscuit.
