Entry: Science is Real! Friday, October 09, 2009

It's true!

Remember the experiment I proposed back in August? It's taken a while to get off the ground but lo, it's underway, and preliminary results are in.

The top packet is from Canberra courtesy of dedicated biscuit researcher Moggy. The bottom packet was posted from Queensland by Curmudgeon Snr.

While the QLD packet is longer and wider than the NSW/ACT version, they are the same weight. That, my science-loving friends, points to a southern propensity for greater density. There's so much more to discuss here. We haven't even considered the other two states' version, let alone opened any packets. Thrilling.

I bought Here Comes Science yesterday. Yes, They Might Be Giants, Science is Real. The Great Gingernut Experiment is just the beginning...

Moggy! Silly me. I aplaud your accuracy but since the ACT and NSW share the same Gingernut recipe, I think we're safe here.

In the interest of accuracy, I am compelled to correct you - the gingas are from NSW (Newtown to be exact). I shudder to think how the results of the esperiment could have been warped...
