I’m pretty sure the Dr. Pepper cherry dessert topping wasn’t meant to be milk soluble. Once it’s thoroughly blended though, it’s at least as good as I know you’re thinking it sounds. Trust me, I’m married to a doctor. Pro Tip: This might go well with a giant cookie.
Today is a special day. At 3pm, after 5 years of graduate work and research, my wife will defend her dissertation on “Mechanisms in the Water Vapor Hydrolysis of NaBH4“. Her progress and motivation over the course of the Chemical Engineering PhD program here at USC has been a wild…
