Just in time for @Aus_ScienceWeek My daughter Marley interviews me about what itโs like to be a food scientist! I hope this book will help to inspire the next generation of Aussie food scientists.
A huge thank you to @AIFST for sponsoring the book ๐๐๐ฆ๐ฆ

Big shout out to @Bugshop1 for yummy edible #crickets. BBQ crickets are my favourite but adventurous gastronomes might like to also try the chilli and garlic crickets.

Today @VenomsLab brought in edible crickets! What's good for the tarantula is good for the tarantula venom researcher I guess! ๐
๐คค Crunchy, kind of like a corn chip, sticks in your teeth and throat a little bit... But a surprisingly tasty snack! Thanks Glenn!

We will be voting against the upcoming, flawed demerger.
Why?
