Aim:To see witch is the best way to cool down hot chilli taste in your mouth when eating chilli
Hypothesis:I think that by using milk I will be able to remove the hot chilli taste from my mouth.
Equipment
1.Milk
2.water
3.Coca cola
4. Tasting cup
5.Chilli
Method:
1.you will work in groups of three for this experiment.Each person in the group will use one of the drinks with the chilli.You will then swap results in your group so that everyone has the same results.
2.Each member of the group needs to have their own tasting cup.This will be used for putting the different liquids in as we cool off the chilli.
Summary and Results
The milk did not work immediately.After 3 minutes it has a small effect.
The coke had a small effect immediately.Coke had no effect after 3 minutes.
The water did no work immediately.The water did no stop the chilli after 3 minutes.
CONCLUSION
Milk could be a solution when eating spicy foods-literally.That's because milk helps your mouth handle capsaicin,an oily chemical compound in chilli peppers.capsaicin binds to a receptor in the tougue and creates a burning sensation. ...Casein protein found in milk can also bind to the capsaicin and wash it away.
MILK | Yes | |
WATER | Kindof | |
COCA COLA | No |

My olympic writing.
I wish I was in the Olympics because it could be my best talent and I could become famous and rich like other Olympic athletes. But the one and the only one I would do is rugby because it's my favorite game I like to play. Also it could be epic watching my family cheer for me like supporting me of what I'm doing and what I have achieved. Being an olympic athlete would be a dream for me because some olympic people's dreams have come true and that's why I want my dream to become true too.I also want to be in mountain cycling to cause I could get fit and get strong by doing things like this in the end.
Thanks for reading my good work and I hope you have a good day bye.
