Myers of The Atlantic‚ in a review that condemned the work as “a record of the gourmet’s ongoing failure to think in moral terms‚” conceded that “Pollan writes of the role of corn in American life in such an improbably thrilling manner that I have to recommend the book.” At the same time‚ his fixation with stories helps to explain why the book troubles me in some ways.

We recorded the results along with our observations. Then we rinsed off the egg and weighed it before putting it back in the beaker and smothering it in 250ml of corn syrup only to be suffocated with a saran wrap ceiling again. On Wednesday we recorded our observations of what the corn syrup did to the egg along with the amount of corn syrup that there was left. Then we rinsed the egg off and weighed it yet again. Then we had to measure a whooping 250ml of clear flat water

Kellogg brothers and the history of Kellogg’s Corn Flakes. Discussion questions: • What was interesting? What was surprising? • J.H.

EXPERIMENT 1: REACTIONS OF ENOLATE IONS WITH CARBONYL GROUPS Aims In this experiment we used two techniques for the reactions of enolate ions with carbonyl groups. One technique used was Doebner reaction and the other technique used was Claisen-Schmidt reaction. Therefore the aim of this experiment is to synthesize trans p-methoxycinnamic acid and to synthesize dibenzalacetone via an aldol condensation reaction between acetone and benzaldehyde. The products would be recrystallized using ethanol

they can all be traced back to a specific patch of soil. My interests in the book picked back up when I read that almost all the food we eat‚ supplies we use‚ and the supermarkets we shop in are originated through Zea mays‚ corn. Once Pollan moved from detailing how we use corn in almost everything‚ I lost interest throughout the rest of the chapter. Although Pollan did a great job of providing facts‚ the book had the tendency to weave me in and out of interest. Most of the chapters passed the test

Experiment 2: IDENTIFICATION OF UNKNOWNS BY TLC AND MP IN COMBINATION Introduction: Thin layer chromatography (TLC) is one of the most valuable techniques in organic chemistry. This is a best method of separating and identifying mixtures of two or more compounds. The separation is accomplished by the distribution of the mixture between two phases: one that is stationary and one that is moving or mobile. Chromatography works on the principle that different compounds will have different
