...After a suitably scholastic detour into the origins of the phrase "molecular gastronomy," (McGee maintained that the term was born at a scientific conference in the early 1990s in an attempt to make inquiries into cooking sound more impressive; physicist Cassi suggested that he coined the phrase some years later), Adrià urged the audience to, essentially, chill out. "If we keep seeing science and cooking as two Martians coming at each other with test tubes, we all lose," he argued. "We have to normalize the relationship between them."
