The Science and Lore of Culinary Culture

Grading is somewhat random and mysterious; scores can vary widely between students.

The course has a moderate to heavy workload, involving individual projects, experiments, blog posts, and presentations. Some find it manageable, while others feel it's quite troublesome.

Assessments include weekly attendance quizzes, individual assignments like updating blogs, making posters, doing presentations, writing short reflections, completing experiment reports, and a final open-book quiz.

The teaching style is described as engaging for some but superficial or lacking depth for others. Lectures cover chemical principles and cooking methods, with varying levels of scientific rigor depending on the format (online/offline).

Be prepared for a moderate to heavy workload involving individual projects and experiments. Some students suggest taking attendance quizzes seriously to avoid losing points.
