Desserts, Snacks, and Treats
The sweet tidbits that are used to finish off a meal are some of the more spectacular creations of a chef. The creation of these treats leads to numerous questions that can be asked and ideas that can be shared in answers in our 'Desserts Snacks and Treats' category and its subcategories.
Asked by Francesca Feil in Nutrition, Desserts, Snacks, and Treats, Chips
Can green potato chips make you sick?

Technically, yes, but you’d have to eat such a large amount of them that it’s not worth worrying about.
First, let’s understand why parts of potatoes turn green. Potatoes, for the most part, are grown underground, but occasionally, a small part might be exposed to sunlight. Those exposed parts turn green as chlorophyll begins to form. Although most of these colorful outliers don’t make it onto the grocery store shelves, the occasional green potato might go overlooked, and this is why you might see a slice in one of your snack bags.
In terms of safety, chlorophyll is both tasteless and nontoxic. However, as a potato turns green, conditions are right for it to synthesize a glycoalkaloid poison called solanine, which potatoes produce to defend against insects and predators. Ingesting large amounts of solanine can cause vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, headaches, and a slew of other unpleasant symptoms—including death. The good news is that those toxic levels would equate to eating several pounds of green potatoes.
Long story short, the moderate solanine formation in one or two errant potato chips is not enough to do any harm.

Does Stainless Steel have a CAS Number?

However stainless steel and steel are not part of the European
REACH directive (1907-2006-EC) there seem to be some examples of
CAS numbers for stainless steel, however this looks more like a
individual initiative from the supplier / producer.
Example: CAS 7439-89-6 ThyssenKrupp Stainless
Steel is not a chemical substansion as meant by REACH, but a
product with several chemical elements. These elements do have a
CAS number.
Asked in Food & Cooking, Desserts, Snacks, and Treats, Restaurants and Dining Establishments
What is formal food service?

a sweet tender starter which may include pieces of a choice of
fish, chicken, lamb, etc.
If vegetarian you can serve dishes of vegetable potatoes or
other fresh ranges.
I think the question may refer to 'Silver Service': the diners
are seated and waiters or servers move round the table offering
each dish. Food is offered to the right of the diner and is placed
on the diner's plate by the waiter using a fork and spoon, rather
like chopsticks, to lift and transport the food.
Between courses wine waiters move around the table filling
glasses which are placed on the table just above the knives at the
right hand side of the plate.
After a course, plates and cutlery are cleared by servers moving
in to the Left side of the diner. Then the next course is served in
a similar way to the right of the diner.
There may be a toast in between courses when the host at the
head of the table or a toastmaster will announce the toast. Diners
may be expected to stand, to raise their glasses and repeat the
phrasing of the toast, for example, "The Queen" before reseating
themselves.
The array of cutlery and wine glasses at a formal dinner may be
bewildering - the usual rule is to begin outside and work inwards.
The serving staff will remove each piece of cutlery, crockery or
wine glass as it becomes redundant and you simply pick up the
outermost utensil for the next course.
Asked in Baking, Desserts, Snacks, and Treats, Cakes
Is Betty Crocker Super Moist cake mix two tier?

Depends on the size of the cake. When I'm making a cake I use
one box for one tier. The sizes are on the back of the box. If
using round cake pans they show two cakes but they're not very
thick cakes. Tiers are usually at least 3" thick. The cakes are
usually only 1-2" baked (2 - 9" rounds)
My advice is to google (Wilton.com has a good size chart) how
many boxes per pan you need for the size cake you're trying to
make.
I have used that cake mix before for a 4 tier round cake. I used
a thread to split both cakes in half and cooled them down. I then
put one of the tops of the cake facing down on the plate and began
layering and filling.
Asked by Kamron Roberts in Chocolate, Desserts, Snacks, and Treats, Dermatologists
Does chocolate cause acne?

Nope! The list of things we know actually causes acne is not very long, but we do know this: Chocolate, and greasy foods, for that matter, are not on it.
Medical professionals believe genetics, changing hormones, greasy makeup, and taking certain medications are the factors at play, not what you eat. However, if you already have acne, certain things can make it worse, like pollution, humidity, and stress.
Asked in Desserts, Snacks, and Treats, Fruits and Vegetables
What is guava paste good for?

Goiabada (guava paste) is a popular dessert throughout the
Portuguese-speaking countries of the world, dating back to the
colonial days in Brazil, where guavas were used as a substitute for
the quinces used to make marmelada (quince cheese). An abundance of
sugar and slave labour were crucial for its confection, in large
cauldrons cooking over a slow fire. It is a conserve made of guava
and sugar. It is still commonly made at 苹果彩票网登录 for family use or by
苹果彩票网登录 industry outlets (traditional recipes) or as processed
food
