Program Announcement: I'm Moving
September 1, 2011

Note to Unions: This Is Not How You Build a Coalition
September 1, 2011

The Nanostructure of Noms: Why Edible Fats Are So Tasty
X-ray diffraction patterns reveal the orientation of fat crystals. The distribution and directionality of these crystal nanostructures (parallel to the shear field in C, randomly arranged in D) affects the flavor and texture of foods. From butter in croissants to cocoa solids in chocolate, edible fats pack a flavor punch that delights like no other macronutrient we consume. Fats are the most…
