Edumacation And Enlearnment

IC - your degree sounds cool to me. Is it about the science of cooking or is it more like animal nutrition? A lot of veterinarians are required to do classes in ruminant nutrition before vet school but I think your stuff sounds way more interesting then when I got to learn about silage and haylage and all that jazz.
What is wine science? Do you get to make wine, taste wine - do you then become a sommelier? That would be so cool!! I love food and wine.
I wish I had taken advantage of some of the interesting classes I could have taken when I was an undergrad all I could think about was vet school so I think I shortchanged myself on learning stuff just for the joy of learning. Now I wish I had time to audit some classes or the energy to take some on line for fun but work pretty much fills my day.
You sound like a really dedicated student and I bet you are going to be a huge success!
Howl:
Icecreams degree is awesome, as are the classes she has. And wine science sounds interesting.
You are a very dedicated student Icecream and I will be sending you good vibes that you pass your last 4 subjects. :)

Mr. Wiggins's degree is food science. But it's food micro, which although interesting, is disgusting.
Paynesgrey:
Microbiology: where you learn fascinating and revolting secrets of the culinary universe, never want to eat again, and then decide you could go for a really nice smoked cheddar and a beer.

I remember grossing out some fellow diners once when eating mussels right after I had dissected them in a lab - they didn't appreciate my describing the anatomy of what they were eating.
On the other hand, I can always tell when I'm having dinner with fellow wildlife type people because we have no problem talking about necropsies, carcasses, and larva between mouthfuls of food.
