The word 'Biscuit' is derived from the Latin words 'Bis' (meaning 'twice') and 'Coctus' (meaning cooked or baked). The word 'Biscotti' is also the generic term for cookies in Italian. Back then, biscuits were unleavened, hard and thin wafers which, because of their low water content, were ideal food to store.

    The Medi-Biscuit looks like a regular dog treat but has the medicine hidden inside. The treat is in the shape of a bone, so the dog will take the medicine. The smell of the biscuit is the same as a usual dog treat and is edible for the dog to eat. Since Medi-Biscuit has the same features as the numerous dog treats, the dog thinks it is a reward instead of the untasteful medicine they would have to take. The size of the biscuits vary within the dog’s height. There are three sizes; small, medium, and large.…

    When a round ball of raw dough in placed on a cookie sheet and inserted into the oven, the first reaction in the series to come is already starting. The butter (a saturated fat and solid at room temp.) melts when exposed to the heat of the oven, causing the cookie to spread and transforming that ball of ingredients into “cookie form.” As this is occurring, the edges of the cookie (which are exposed to a continuous source of heat) begin to set. This is due to the proteins from the eggs and flour, coagulating much like a fried egg does in a hot pan does. The spreading and setting reactions could be thought of as the set up step, for next, the mysterious reactions that give a baked cookie lift and flavor occur. The upcoming reactions are what makes eating perfectly cooked cookies different than licking the cookie dough directly out of the bowl (even though, I’d argue that can be just as delicious)!…
