Burlington House Summer Lates: Why does asparagus make your wee smell?

24 June 2016 18:30-21:00, London, United Kingdom


Introduction
Explore the Burlington House Courtyard like never before, and discover the six learned societies that reside here, furthering the study of arts and sciences and sharing it with audiences around the world.

At the Royal Society of Chemistry grab a drink and join Andy Brunnning, author of  ‘Why does asparagus make your wee smell?’, as he explains the chemistry behind some of our most common culinary questions.  Ever wondered why chocolate is poisonous to dogs? Or whether cheese really gives you bad dreams? Whether mixing drinks worsens your hangover? Or why some people hate Brussels sprouts?

Then come along to find out the answer to these and many more questions.

Talks will begin at 19.00, 19.30, 20.00 and 20.30. No booking required*.

*Some activities around the courtyard may require booking/or a participation fee; all activities at the Royal Society of Chemistry are free and are suitable for all members of the public unless otherwise specified.
