02: in my mind

because i want to steer away from plants & product comparison and i've no idea how to incorporate cooking into my experiment, i might do something that investigates how people's brains work in different conditions. i'm not really sure how to...but some of the possible factors which hopefully affect the brain could be light and dark, rest and no rest, temperature maybe, and that's all i can really think of. i'll do some more research and try find more experiments to try. right now my preferences are:

1. cooking-related experiment
2. neurology (is that what it's called?) experiemnt
3. yet to discover

if i do find different and reasonable factors that affect people's brains, i might make like a quiz or something, maybe like a reaction or memory quiz, and record the response or any changes or something similar. hopefully if i do go along with this experiment, i'll have enough people. i'll probably do it on people in the 12-18 age group or something because that means i can use people from school. but i also want to try the experiment with adults as well because our brains are still "developing". the only problem with that is that i don't know a lot of adults. T^T
anyways, good luck to everyone. :D

01: sweet tooth

i really want to do an experiment related to the process of making a cake, but other than that, i've no idea what else i want to do. the only cake-related experiment i can think of is the amount of beating needed for different amount of egg whites before they turn back into liquid. there isn't really an independent variable because everything will probably vary each time because you can't get it exactly exact. most of the experiment would require judgement rather than facts anyway, and not to mention that i'll end up with heaps of meringue/ pavalova and will probably waste heaps of eggs. D:
i'm trying to steer away from plants and product testing because i want something super-ly creative and 100% original. suggestions?
