While most of the items I have listed below do not have a direct curricular purpose, they are lots of fun and add to the classroom experience. If you have developed a learning activity using the items below or you have additional food ideas to share, please leave a comment.
Watermelon Flavored Sigmund Freud Head Lollipops
Always a great addition to the personality or therapy unit. Occasionally my classes get into a discussion regarding the Freudian interpretation of this candy. For more information or to order the lollipops go to http://www.mcphee.com/items/11771.html
Musk Life Savers
In Australia, musk is considered both a flavor and smell. Use these
when discussing taste, adaptation, culture, development, etc. A practical bit of advise; break the life savors up into smaller bits. Most students will spit the life savor out after a few seconds. To order go to http://www.aussieproducts.com/prodinfo.asp?number=NEML20.Brain Gelatin Mold
For your next lecture on the brain, create your own close to life size brain made from Jello. The mold even gives instructions on how to create a lifelike color for your brain. Image your students eyes when, at the end of your lecture, you start eating your brain model. To order go to
