Beets, oranges, carrots, spinach, cabbage, radishes...all make great colors and masterpieces for visitors to take with them. Great way to combine science and art!

We are thinking about making a demonstration on the chemistry of fruits and vegetables (ripening, texture, colors and colors change in cooking, nutritional values, water content). Any ideas for good demonstrations?
