Why didn't they think of this sooner? It makes perfect sense. What better way to demonstrate protein behavior at varying temperatures than examining an egg transform during cooking?

Having worked in many labs in college and work, I cannot imagine a lab aimed at teaching science principles that is stocked with sugars, flour, eggs and xanthan gum rather than the usual toxic chemicals. Even more unbelievable is a lab in which you eat the end product of your experiment.
What a happy thought!
For those of us not among the 300 Harvard undergraduates enrolled in this course, Harvard is posting the lecture series for this class on youtube:
'From Haute Cuisine to Soft Matter Science' Lecture Series
Happy Learning!
