How to extract DNA!!!

This is how you extract DNA!! First, take 1/2 cup of green peas or another DNA source, 1 cup of water, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt, and mix it in a blender for about 15 seconds. Then, strain the mixture through a sieve to remove all the unblended peas. Next, add 2 tablespoons of detergent and mix carefully. Let that sit for 5-10 minutes. Afterwards, fill a test tube with about 1/3 cup of the pea liquid, and dip a stick in it. Then, take the stick and put in meat tenderizer. After that, mix the meat tenderizer into the pea liquid. Next, tilt the test tube and carefully pour alchohol on the side, so it lays on top. When you put the alchol in, you start to see a stringy white thing. Voila, thats DNA!!
