These posters were created by members of Jamie Daugherty's Experimental Foods course (FCS 424), which provides a critical introduction to research and scientific methods of problem solving in the area of foods. The lab-based course emphasizes student-directed projects and experiments utilizing research and development techniques, including oral and written communication of research findings.

The posters draw upon a semester-long project that engages with research done in and out of the lab, allowing small groups to test formulations and make improvements on them. Students are required to use sensory and objective evaluation techniques to evaluate their products.
