Reflections:
I feel that Science is actually present in our everyday lives, and we need to be more observant. For example, I was very amazed about how fried ice cream was being made. Now, I have learnt to appreciate science better. Since there is something called fried ice-cream, I think that there would be something called "iced cold soup" in the near future maybe. These creative and extraordinary foodstuffs may attract many customers to dine at the restaurants. Thus, I feel that people should come up with more creative types of food. Maybe next time, there might even be something called iced curry...
