  • Kevin Baldridge 16:41, 22 April 2013 (EDT):typo in the introduction or the image caption, one says "Herve This" and the other says "Hert This". I really wish his name was Hurt This...
  • Kevin Baldridge 16:43, 22 April 2013 (EDT):Your mention of reverse spherification comes before you lay out the term spherification, might want to mention what the normal one is first
  • Kevin Baldridge 17:00, 22 April 2013 (EDT):beat foam should be beEt foam

    • Catherine I. Mortensen 13:52, 29 April 2013 (EDT): There are 6 main sweet proteins, I added short summaries of each to my wikki along with a link that characterizes brazzein a little better. Brazzein is the most commonly used sweet protein due to its stability.
