Oils and fats bring "a lot to the table" so to speak in terms of food systems. They are great at carrying flavors, as well as at providing satisfyingly soft, smooth, or crunchy texture. There's a problem, though. Fats can break down and form aromas that smell stale, card-boardy, or downright rancid. This breakdown is caused by the reaction of fats with oxygen. Fats and oils often naturally contain ______ , like Vitamin E that protect them from oxidation. When these are not naturally present, they are typically added in very small quantities. These ingredients would include BHT, BHA, or TBHQ. In our bodies, these types of molecules (Vitamin C, Vitamin E, flavonoids) may help prevent disease by preventing or inhibiting a variety of oxidation reactions.

As Napoleon (the general, not the dessert) discovered, feeding an army can be very challenging. He famously said, "An army travels on its stomach." To address this problem, he sponsored a contest... 12,000 francs to the first person to invent a shelf-stable food product that could travel along with his army. After 15 years of painstaking research, a Parisian invented a process whereby meats and vegetables were pack into glass jars (modified champagne bottles, really) and sealed with wax to withstand the pressure of heating. For his work, Appert was awarded the 12,000 francs in 1810. Today, we call this the ______ process

In Episode 13, we did a rather bizarre demonstration where we added a few drops of food coloring to milk and then added a drop of soap. The result? The food coloring was pushed out toward the sides of the container and moved around spontaneously in psychedelic patterns (see image above). So, what was going on? Select one or more: a. The surfactant molecules in the soap spread out over the surface of the liquid milk, moving the food coloring out of the way as it went. b. This demonstration gave a visual illustration of what emulsifiers do in food systems, as well as in other applications. c. This demonstration showed that, like food emulsifiers, soap is made up of mono and diglyceride molecules. d. When the surfactant molecules had fully covered the surface, they began to self-assemble into micelles.
