Food Laboratory

This document outlines the concept of a food laboratory for learning biology concepts. It discusses using food to observe, demonstrate, and experiment with biological processes like diffusion, osmosis, respiration, and fermentation. Some example experiments are described, such as preserving eggs through osmosis with salt, preparing bitter gourd by osmosis with salt, making bread through the respiration of yeast and sugar, and examining the effect of temperature on microbial activity through yeast fermentation. The rationale for a food laboratory is that it involves hands-on learning and engages the senses, is creative, fun, and can lead to meaningful long-term memory through eating the results.
