Free Food Lectures @ The University of Auckland

I don't often read those newsletters from my alma mater, but this month, something caught my eye.  For four Thursdays from the end of the month, there will be a lecture given on a food-related topic as part of the Vice Chancellor's Lecture Series: Good Food, Good Health.

The titles look pretty interesting, especially the third one, so I've signed up for double tickets to all of them already.  Check them out!

28 July - Diet and obesity: down a road less travelled
4 August - Carbohydrates: friend or foe?
11 August - Myths, molecules and 5% magic
18 August - The fetus and newborn: critical gourmands

    I think it's just that particular talk that was booked out when I tried. C'est la vie.

    Oooh, not too sure if I should be mentioning this, in case I don't get a seat, someone's just told me about an even more interesting-sounding lecture on food and chemistry: Creativity at the interface of chemistry and cuisine: A plate of molecules
