Using Fibonacci and Phyllotaxis to Advance the Field of Culinary Arts & Sciences

Joseph “Mick” La Lopa

Abstract

Scholars have used Fibonacci numbers to solve the mysteries of great works of art, music, and architecture and to understand the natural world. It is quite possible that Fibonacci numbers could be used to enhance our understanding of culinary arts and sciences because they are evident in the fruits, vegetable, and flowers that chefs use to plant, prepare, cook, and serve in foodservice operations every day.
