Hello everyone! Welcome to this new episode of The Food Science Addict Podcast!
This time, I've recorded an episode based on a personal experience. Some time ago, while preparing my dinner, I noticed a swollen pack of roasted potatoes in my fridge—just one day past its use-by date.
Join me as I speculate on the types of microorganisms that could grow in such a product. Since I'll be pronouncing (and mispronouncing!) many microorganism names, here's a list of those I mention:

In this special episode, we take an unusual turn by diving into the delicious world of food in film—this time with Julie & Julia (2009), directed by Nora Ephron and starring Meryl Streep and Amy Adams. This heartwarming foodie favourite brings Julia Child’s culinary genius to life, inspiring a new generation to embrace the art and science of cooking. We’ll explore how the film captures the magic of food chemistry, consumer behaviour, and the powerful nostalgia that connects us to flavours of the past. Have you watched the movie?
Do you want to add more to the discussion? Feel free to add your comments, I would love to keep the conversation going.

Hello from Vero, your host! In this episode, I delve into the physics of pasta cooking (and a bit of food chemistry), examining energy-efficient methods to reduce water and energy usage. Based on the linked article, I discuss the "heat-off, lid-on" technique and pre-soaking dried pasta, exploring their impacts on texture and quality. Join me for a fascinating look at sustainable cooking practices through a scientific lens!
