Details

For this event, we will invite students to attend an interactive lecture on the chemistry behind spicy food, specifically Buldak instant ramen. Students will each be provided a cup of spicy ramen, different spice levels will be available, so that they may experience the sensation of spicy. The lecture will be led to elaborate on capsaicin and how it induces "spiciness". Milk will be available to relieve the spicy feeling as needed.
