Police said the pine cone-shaped grenade, which had no pin and was still active, was the same type used by U.S. soldiers in Europe in World War Two. It didn't look like a potato and it was heavier than one. But what if she had cooked it? "If I hadn't felt its weight, I wouldn't even have realized that it was a bomb," she said. Rating: 5
