👉 Bowl engineering is a specialized field within food science and technology that focuses on the design, development, and optimization of food containers, particularly for liquids and semi-liquids like beverages. It involves manipulating the physical properties of the container material, such as its shape, surface texture, and internal structure, to enhance the sensory experience, stability, and preservation of the food or beverage inside. By controlling factors like capillary action, evaporation rates, and microbial growth, bowl engineers can create containers that improve flavor retention, reduce spoilage, and offer a superior drinking experience. This field combines principles from materials science, fluid dynamics, and sensory science to innovate in packaging solutions for a wide range of products, from soft drinks and juices to alcoholic beverages and even specialized nutraceuticals.
