Project Requirements: Written Report (1 page; 2-3 paragraphs; Typed, no double-space):

1. Each team must prepare a Food Description that follows the outline below.

a. Name of New Food Product

b. Product Description

c. Product Recipe and type of Chemical Law implemented

i. List of Ingredients and Ingredient Chemical Law Functions

ii. Instructions for Preparation

You will develop an original food item, complete a written product description, and orally present your product and proposal to the class or teacher(s). You will work in groups of two to four members. All assignments must be typed in paragraph form. All activities and assignments will be completed according to the schedule below.

Primary Learning Outcomes:

Students will apply chemistry’s, Laws of Conservation Mass, Law of Definite Proportions, OR Law of Multiple Proportions concepts to develop a food dish.

Students will develop an understanding of and appreciation for food science and the food industry.

Students will acquire knowledge of food product development, food quality, food safety, food processing and preparation, packaging, product storage, and the marketing of new food products.

Students will communicate clearly and effectively by oral and written means.

Students will develop and demonstrate leadership, team working, and creative thinking skills.
