Cook’s Science Live will take you on a quest to answer one of America’s most pressing questions: What makes a burger so good?

Cook’s Science Executive Editors, Dan Souza and Molly Birnbaum use interactive video, music, scent, storytelling, and live experiments to take you on their journey--from top bun to bottom bun. Together, you’ll learn how sound changes our perception of lettuce, why the glass ketchup bottle is a cruel joke, how grass can change the flavor of beef fat, and why the most important ingredient in your hamburger bun is actually a vegetable. Bring an open mind and an open stomach; your most pressing food, science, or cooking questions; and a friend. It’s going to be fun (and weird, but in a good way).
