You didn't think real orange juice looked that perfect, did you? "Cloud particles", which are a mix of pectin, lipids, proteins, cellulose, and other minor components can be found in O.J., giving it its significant colour, flavour, and mouthfeel @UofGFoodProf #Food2150 #Croak

Sarah @UofGFoodProf @UofGFoodProf Did you realize that heat pasteurization isn’t the only way to sterilize foods? High pressure processing uses over pressure over 72,000 PSI to inactive bacteria, viruses or moulds! #Nienaber #FOOD2150 #underpressure

Cant stop eating chocolate? The desire to consume fatty foods can be related to survival instincts, as they contain more energy per gram than other macronutrients. Also, due to its hydrophobicity, fats are less likely to disturb osmotic balance #Food2150 @UofGFoodProf #Marangoni

@amazingkuskus @UofGFoodProf Ischæmic heart disease is very low in Eskimos in northern Greenland, even though their diet is very rich in animal fat. Compared to individuals in a Danish population, the concentration of lipids in the Eskimos was much lower. What is a potential reason for this? #Bang #Food2150

maddie @UofGFoodProf @UofGFoodProf Impossible Foods There is amazing potential in grains, veggies and microbiological systems to create meat-analog food products! The challenge lies in extracting and processing these proteins to make "meat" products with appealing physical structure #Jones #Food2150

Be careful with what's in your supplements gents. While folic acid is great for certain audiences, it has been found to increase the risk of prostate cancer, and can be found in small concentrations in certain supplements #nonutNovember #Movember #Figueiredo @UofGFoodProf

Jordan Elshof @UofGFoodProf Folate is an important B-vitamin that increases cell division. Unfortunately, its derivative folic acid, has the same effect on cancer cells! A 10 yr study found that prostate cancer rates were 6% higher in men who took folic acid vs a placebo! @UofGFoodProf #Food2150 #Figueiredo

Jordan Elshof @UofGFoodProf Most breakfast cereals are fortified with folic acid, which has proven to have certain health benefits. However, it has also shown to increase the risk of prostate cancer due to its role in cell division. Begone, B9! #MakeCerealGreatAgain @UofGFoodProf #Figueiredo #Food2150

Jordan Elshof @UofGFoodProf Folic acid is the fully oxidized monoglutamyl form of the naturally reduced folate. Folic acid,compared to folate,uses different pathways for digestion which increases the expression of folates receptors in few cancer types like prostate cancer #Figueiredo #Food2150 @UofGFoodProf

Fun fact: it takes longer to describe a vine to someone than it does to watch a vine

You can’t do inventory for urea without pretending you’re climbing Mount Everest #inventory19

Here’s to the folks out there that don’t need a political party or ideology to tell them what to do or think, but instead employ the use of common sense and decency.
