Where did ice cream come from?

Fifty years ago, people only ate ice cream in the summer. Now it is eaten all year round. It was invented in the East long before schoolchildren first tried ice cream in waffle cups.

Explorer Marco Polo saw people eating ice cream there. He liked this idea so much that he brought it to Italy. From there, ice cream came to France and became popular with noble people. They tried to hide the ice cream recipe from the common people. But, of course, people soon recognized the taste of this delicacy, and ice cream became popular among them. It soon spread throughout the world and even reached the United States.

The first ice cream factory began operating in Baltimore, Maryland in 1851. But the production of ice cream did not become widespread until the beginning of our century, when new refrigeration units appeared.

Ice cream consists of cream, milk or dairy products, and sometimes eggs are added to it. For taste, vanilla, chocolate, berries, nuts or fruits are added to ice cream. The recipe for regular ice cream is as follows: for 80-85% of cream or other dairy products, take 15% sugar, from 0,5 to 4,5% flavor and 0,3% stabilizer.

A small amount of stabilizer is added to make the ice cream more uniform and prevent the formation of coarse ice crystals. For this purpose, edible gelatin is usually used.

When you eat a third of a cup of vanilla ice cream, you get as much calcium, protein, and vitamin B as in half a cup of milk, and as much vitamin A as in a whole cup.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The Petgugu cat litter bowl is designed for use with water-soluble litters and offers a range of additional ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

pokemon electromagnetic gun 04.10.2012

In 1997, the most popular animated series about Pokemon was shown on television - fictional intelligent animals with unusual abilities. Recently it became known that the US military was seriously carried away by the children's cartoon. In 1998, the US Army Intelligence Service proposed to scientists to develop an electromagnetic emitter that would "overload" the brains of the enemy and make him convulse.

The fact is that a rather unpleasant incident occurred in the history of Pokemon: on December 16, 1997, during the show of the animated series about Pokemon on Japanese television, about 700 viewers experienced symptoms of epilepsy. Due to the excitation of the optic nerve by specific signals (according to the authors of the cartoon, the image is too bright and dynamic with frequent flashes), hundreds of viewers felt nauseous and experienced an attack of vomiting.

According to a declassified Pentagon document, electromagnetic pulses have the potential to cause neurons to emit erratic, frequent signals, resulting in "impaired muscle control." According to the military, the vast majority of people are not able to resist the effects of such an induction gun.

It should be noted that the idea of using electromagnetic radiation to disrupt chemical pathways in the central nervous system looks very dangerous. This weapon is supposed to induce a nervous attack similar to an epileptic one and act on the enemy through visual signals or invisible electromagnetic beams.

The idea is that a specific electrical signal from the optic nerve triggers the excitatory mechanisms of the nervous system. The US military wanted just such a weapon and added that it should act on 100% of people from a distance of up to hundreds of meters. At the same time, the "Pokemon gun" should incapacitate a person as quickly as an epileptic seizure (in 3-5 minutes) and have a similar effect, that is, a complete loss of muscle control and a temporary disorder of consciousness.

The document emphasizes that the loss of working capacity of the human nervous system under the influence of an electromagnetic pulse has not been verified. However, the analysis suggests that electric field strengths of 50 to 100 kV/m are likely to be "sufficient to trigger neural activity: Thus, such a weapon can work even at a distance of hundreds of kilometers."
