Finally, someone brave enough to tackle the real scientific questions! While physicists waste time on phase diagrams for boring things like water and carbon, this culinary scientist has mapped the fundamental states of food matter. The transition boundaries between soup, stew, and casserole are governed by strict thermodynamic principles of viscosity and temperature. Graduate students have been known to defend their PhD theses on the critical "Is chili a soup or a stew?" boundary case. Next up: the quantum superposition state where your dinner is simultaneously a casserole AND a lasagna until you observe it.
