Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.



Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Also development of preservation and preparation techniques.

To that extent: pringles are pressed potato powder. Because it meets the need of a chip that is easily and precisely formed, easily preserved and falls apart with little pressure.

To describe fast food and highly processed junk foods as anything but engineered does a disservice to the word "engineering".

For developing fast food for example you'd want a food science degree rather than a food engineering one.
