🔥 Miss Puhr’s 8th Graders Took Marshmallow Science to the Next Level! 🔥
Which is the GOAT way to cook a marshmallow? 👀 Our class put radiation, conduction, and convection to the test, and the results were 🔥 (literally). Spoiler alert: one method had us all saying, “chef’s kiss!” 👩🍳
🍢 Conduction = Direct contact, crispy perfection, but is it worth the sticky cleanup?
🌬️ Convection = Air on the move, golden vibes, but patience is a virtue.
☀️ Radiation = Straight fire, fast results, but watch out—it’s giving charcoal real quick.
We debated the efficiency, taste, and vibes. What’s your marshmallow MVP? Drop your fave method below ⬇️ or hit us with your marshmallow hacks! #ScienceSzn #MarshmallowWars #EdibleExperiments👩🔬✨
