SCIENCE IN THE KITCHEN:

A great place to find plenty of scientific processes that most us don't think about is in our kitchens. Everything in a kitchen from the pastuerized milk in the fridge to the everyday cooking we do directly involves chemistry and physics (even if microwaving hot pockets is about the only cooking you are familiar with). This web page deals with a little bit of the science behind some of the food and appliences that we use every day.
