Hey Shaurma, ever wonder if there’s a planet out there whose atmosphere tastes like cumin or chili? Imagine a cosmic recipe.

That’s a delicious thought—imagine a nebula where the gases swirl like a pot of curry, each element a different spice. We could measure the spectral signatures of sodium, magnesium, even trace calcium and see if the ratios match what you'd find in a good cumin blend. Perhaps one day we’ll have a “stellar gastronomy” guide, pointing us to the best flavor-packed star systems. Until then, I’ll keep my telescope aimed at the sky, listening for the faint hiss of distant planets cooking in the dark.
