 It smells like food, I also wanna eat it

I kinda like soap now. 

EducationInChemistry:

Later Tyler points out that glycerine is made as a byproduct in the soap-making process: 'when the tallows harden you skim-off a layer of glycerine, if you were to add nitric acid, you got nitroglycerine, if you were to add sodium nitrol and a dash of sawdust you got dynamite. Yeah, with enough soap we can blow up just about anything'.



In the process of making soap, the fats and oils are hydrolysed (saponification), yielding glycerol (glycerine) and crude soap. Sodium chloride can be added after the reaction which helps precipitate the soap.

Nitric acid reacts with glycerine to make nitroglycerine but concentrated sulfuric acid is also needed to absorb the water produced. Nitroglycerine is explosive and shock sensitive. In 1866 Alfred Nobel discovered that by adding kieselguhr, to make a sort of paste, he could make a much more stable explosive which he called dynamite. Kieselguhr is a naturally occurring siliceous material and presumably what Tyler is referring to when he says 'add a dash of saw dust'.

 Tyler's description of getting glycerin from tallow isn't accurate. I've heard the book has the proper instructions, but the movie was changed because they didn't want to mass advertise how to actually make nitroglycerin. The bottom half of your post is correct where it says to salt out the soap to separate them

It's why I bothered having the video within another source instead of just left by itself. 

Link's in the orange text.

Yep.

Even without the book it's just a matter of fact checking it on Youtube, where there's bound to be some sort of Backyard Scientist type. If not that, there's always The Anarchist Cookbook or just general internet browsing to cover those areas. 

It still serves to motivate people to want to make bombs, but it isn't itself liable for how to do it.
