Based on the data collected in this lab, it can be concluded that double-stuffed Oreos do not contain double the amount of filling as regular Oreos. In the experiment, the mass and height of each entire Oreo was measured and recorded. Then, the cookie was split apart and the cream filling was scraped off. The remaining Oreo components, the two cookie pieces, were measured for mass and height again. By subtracting the cookie measurements from the Oreo measurements, we found the height and mass of the cream fillings, which we then averaged.…

The materials given were three raw chicken eggs, vinegar, maple syrup, tap water, and table salt. Prior to beginning the experiment, the raw chicken eggs were saturated in vinegar for two days, in order to remove the outer shell. Also before beginning the experiment, the mass of the glass dish was obtained, via a triple beam balance, for measuring/zeroing purposes. On the day of the experiment, the three raw eggs were removed from their vinegar bath and rinsed under a stream of tap water, running from a faucet. After rinsing, each egg was patted dry, placed in a glass dish, and measured b y a triple beam balance, in order to obtain the initial mass of the egg.…
Cool Mints When eating a mint a cool sensation bursts through one's mouth, but is that mint really making their mouth cold, or is it just their mind playing tricks on them? This science fair project is questioning whether or not mints really make one's mouth cold. To test this the theory, the project will include a glass of lukewarm with mints added in every few minutes. How will adding mints in a glass of room temperature water affect the temperature of water?…
Should the government regulate e-cigarettes younger and younger kids each year are using e-cigs.

Then a little kid drank the e-cigarette juice and ended up getting poisoned. The poison ended up making her pass away.…
These utterly delicious sweet tarts are said to be one of Canada’s only indigenous recipes and are baked on the street and in homes across the land, with several festivals and ‘food trails’ dedicated to celebrating them. They are traditionally made with corn syrup to keep the texture soft and oozing; however this can be hard to find in the UK, so I’ve used maple syrup, as it seemed fitting, but do use corn syrup if you can find it, or even golden syrup will…
The ancient Greeks had begun putting wads of mastic tree resin in their mouth to sweeten their breath. Bad breath can be caused by many things. The most common reason is food debris and dental plaque that remain in the mouth after having a meal. Chewing gum can be a quick way to reduce the bad…
Combine neon dancing lights, creatively-named beverages, odd proposals, complimentary Oreos and only slightly awkward dancing, and what do you get? A Semi Formal! Upon walking into the “Winter Wonderland” created by the Senior Class, you would see a large dance floor bordered by tables to the left, refreshments by the far wall and a DJ on the right. Each table was littered with packets of Oreos, just like any five year-old’s (or Senior’s) greatest sugar-crazed dream.…

In “Why McDonald’s Fries Taste So Good” Schlosser explains the trend from fresh on-site prepared food, to the use of natural and artificial flavoring that the food industry is using today. The trend of food be prepared fresh on-site exhibited many challenges for the industry and also had high costs associated with it. The time and labor required in itself, put cost restraints on the industry and limited profits. Schlosser explains in great detail how the company McDonalds went from using prepared on-site fries, to frozen fries and utilizing artificial and natural flavorings that are served today. The companies that make these flavorings are very secretive to both protect their customers and methods of production.…

What will stay lit longer a lemon light bulb or a lime? The light bulb is lit up because of the acid in the fruit. If the lime has more acid in it then, it will keep the light bulb glowing longer. To tell this you need to know what has more acid in it. The light bulb changes the acid into electricity to power it.…
The two brands that I have chosen are coca-cola and Pepsi. These both are the most famous brands of the world and when comparing the blind taste test, none can differentiate between both and love one or the other. But the major difference between coca-cola and Pepsi arises in their brand elements. Some of them are discussed below: brand memorability refers to the memory that we get as soon as we hear the brand name. It is a very important criterion of brand elements.…
From a young age, my parents have always enforced the idea of eating healthy constantly badgering me to eat my vegetables or have a piece of protein with my meals. Although I might not have understood why their reprimanding was important, over the course of these last few weeks in biology I have come to realize that having a sound diet in many ways encompasses what it means to be healthy and live life to its fullest. By actively moderating, recording, and learning about what I have been eating I can now clearly understand that my parents were right to encourage healthy eating in my home. My parent, specifically my mother, was always the one who cooked and influenced my healthy eating at a young age. When looking at my food logs for this…
The olfactory system, the sensory system contributing to the sense of smell, is often overlooked by the average person causing distortion as to how it functions, coupled with the gustatory system, to differentiate the different flavors in food which in turn allows us to classify food as delicious, good, unpleasant, or disgusting. In the other hand, the same can’t be said for the food industry, who spent numerous resources into understanding this specific sensory systems with the aim of engineering food that is to crave for with the intention of maximizing their profits. The ability for humans to identify flavors is caused by the signals sent to the brain by different receptors in the mouth and nose that interpret chemicals found within the…
