I'm one of those eaters who sometimes doesn't want to know what I'm eating. Knowing the chemistry involved in the food-making, though, is a different matter altogether. I'm a glutton for info like this...
I'm glad she said 'burp' instead of 'fart'...

I never thought that expanding CO2 bubbles is what causes the bread to rise. Makes sense tho! Love the animation/sound effects for the yeast...ahem... "burping." :D
just wanna wish you a lovely start in the new - hopefully happy - new week! Sunny greetings from hot germany, geisslein!
Hiya HM:
I sure eat a lot of CO2 gas. I love bread and diet soda (don't tell my mom, though), so those yeast can keep on burping and keep me gassy. ;o) Glad you enjoyed the clip! Thanks a bunch for dropping by. Hope all is going well at school and off, too!
Hallo Geisslein:
Thanks very much for stopping by! Hope all is well in Germany, too, now that they have supposedly found what caused that E. Coli outbreak, ay? :o)
Hey there Smorg,
I'm doing excellently. Classes finished about five weeks ago. For the summer, I am doing physics research with a professor and two other students. We have done energy studies of nuclear fusion reactions for the past month, and I think we may be switching to carbon purification soon.
Yesterday, all the summer physics researchers gave informal five-minute talks about their various projects, and our talk went well. Last week, I had watched Joyce DiDonato's "Handling Nerves" vlog, and during the talk, I tried to remember her advice: "smile genuinely" and "breathe." Sometimes one forgets those little things. :D
Hope all is well with you!
Best,
HM
