It Might Change What You Drink

The wait is over.

Jade's science fair project is DONE.

We tested the effect of different drinks on teeth, using eggshells. The sugar in the drink has no effect on the shells like it would on teeth, so we weren't testing for decay, but the shells will soften and stain like tooth enamel does after exposure to certain drinks.

The results were pretty facinating and surprising. Jade loved it and the stained shells made for a colorful display.

Let's just say I won't be drinking Gatorade much anymore!

Ha ha! Good to know! Did you test lemonade? That's my #1 choice of drink.

Looks like she did a great job. Makes you think before you drink suger drinks.
