In labs, all food and drink are prohibited, so I would assume that yes, it is prohibited. (Used to work in a Molecular Biology lab)
This sounds like a question proposed by a chemistry education professor. I'm a high school chemistry teacher (16 years) and unsure why we push constructivism in chemistry labs. It seems unsafe to have kids design labs. Liability is much greater for the school. Well written labs will develop the skills students need to construct knowlege and attain understanding. Class discussion and post-lab analysis are wonderful opportunities for the student to use constructivism. Proponents of constructivism generally cover far less content than a more traditional approach to teaching chemistry. Very few topics in chemistry do students come to class knowing. Therefore they have little knowledge base to build upon. For these reasons, I will continue to be more traditional and resist constructivism as the only tool to teach chemistry.

Chemistry plays a large role in food preparation, cleaning in the kitchen as well as other areas. See the related links for more information about chemistry in the kitchen.
Food and drinks are not allowed in the high school chemistry lab.
See the Web Links for "Answers.com: Food Chemistry" to the bottom for the answer.

Glass does not readily react with most substances, so it is well-suited for use in chemistry labs.

labs are very fond of food maybe that's why
a (usually) glass jar with a special shape used in chemistry labs.

CB is typically used in chemistry labs as a short-hand for Carbon Black.
One method of preservating food is by irradiation.
Wooden splints are used in chemistry labs. Various experiments are conducted using these splints.
the difference between them is that food chemistry involes ONLY food and regular chemistry involes all the elements and chemical reactions that make up our world's air, land and water....technically the whole world !!!
