San Jose State University
This in-person, hands-on lab course will introduce students to the chemistry behind the food we eat, and encourage them to consider the complex social and cultural factors leading us to consume certain foods prepared in certain ways. In the lab, students will develop lab/kitchen skills while questioning how we ended up eating the way we do. Although students will not be able to consume the results of their lab experiments, what is learned in this course can easily be applied to cooking at home as well. Lab 3 hours.
