ATM my last papers are human nutrition, food micro , food preservation and product development, actually I'm trying a coconut ice cream recipe right now for that course. Anyway wine science it's studying the wine looking at how it develops, how certain flavours/aromas form and involves making your own wine (even better is it's on Waiheke island on the univeristy's newly acquired winery!), apparently people with this degree are sort after in places like California, I told mum this, she said if I ever went to america she'd slip drugs into my bag as I boarded the plane.
Yip, Doing food micro right now. Beer's a safe bet I think, or at least it was the safer alternative back in the middle ages. Actually I'm on the topic of beer right now for micro, learning how to make it, the difference between lagers and ales etc. This is very true, I mean you would'nt want to know about the haemorrhgic diarrhea and possible kidney pailure from E.coli O157:H7 poisoning (and worse the O104:H4 fromthe bean sprouts in Germany) which happens when faeces come in contact with your food. It might ruin your eating experience next time you don't wash your lettuce properly. >:)

We've got a number of brewers, myself included. Maybe I'll start a stickey about brewing. Technically, it should live in "Story of Us", but Mac's is the fun place to put it.....
k9doc95:
IC- that is just down right cool. I do love a good microbology discussion. My husband is a computer guy and is now accustomed to my gross table conversation but I do have to remind myself to stick to neutral topics when out to dinner.
I can still gross my husband out on occasion. I pulled a cuterebra (basically a great big maggot) out of a kitten's neck the other day and that got to him. Kitten did great by the way...
Enjorous:
I have to admit k9doc, that's pretty gross. Glad the kitten's alright.
