@ElshofJordan @UofGFoodProf The structure of fat molecules contribute to many properties including flavour. The structure of these molecules is the direct effect of the triglyceride sequence. @UofGFoodProf #Food2150 #Marangoni

All my roommates and I eat are burgers and frozen pizza. @GordonRamsay what’s a meal that would make us actually enjoy vegetables?! Remember, we cook like 💩. #WesternDiet @UofGFoodProf #food2150 #Cordain

Despite our knowledge of food increasing drastically over the past decade, many food-borne diseases such as salmonella and E. coli still generate public health concerns. Can there be practices that eliminate these diseases? @UofGFoodProf #FOOD2150 #Newell

Incredible to see how @fairoaksfarms successfully educates the public about agriculture. They welcome people explore how a modern swine farm works by opening their doors and answering every question #Iowaswinetour

Everybody has that one friend who is a “bottomless pit” when it comes to eating. Image changing your gut microbiota with antibiotics to have the same ability! #FutureFavouriteDiet #Food2150 @UofGFoodProf #Winkler

Interestingly, there is huge variation of biting force exerted by the different types of teeth in the oral cavity, with further difference between ethnic groups and genders within. Compelling topic for future study I would say! @UofGFoodProf #Chen #assignment

When at rest, the volume of a human stomach can be as little as 25mL. Through its flexibility, the stomach can expand to fit up to 4L worth of food in it at a given time. Excuse me while I dig into a large tub of ice cream! @UofGFoodProf #Food2150 #Kong

The gut brain-axis is a pathway that involves neural, immune, and endocrine signalling pathways. Who knew that knowing if you are still hungry or not is controlled by a lot more than just the digestive system.#Holzer #assignment #Food2150 @UofGFoodProf

@UofGFoodProf We’ve all heard of organ transplants but would you get a poop transplant? Research suggests that stool transplants may be the key to curing antibacterial resistant C. difficile infections. #Petrof #FOOD2150

Interesting to read about the differences in gastric acid secretion in the human body between thought, sight, smell, and taste of appetizing food. The thought of something tasty was found to have the greatest impact on gastric acid secretion. @UofGFoodProf #Feldman #FOOD2150

My Grandpa always blamed over eating on having "large plates". Turns out, he is actually right for once! Environmental factors such as plate size and socializing increase food consumption. I guess he now has a valid excuse.@UofGFoodProf #Wansink #Food2150
