What if fish could cook?

Where is it easier to cook food in the uplands or in the low lands?
It's easier to cook food in the uplands. This is due to the higher altitude allowing for faster cooking time.
Why does a slow cooker cook slowly?
A 'slow' cooker cooks food at a very low heat therefore taking longer than normal to cook the food.
Why does cooking take longer in higher atmospheres?
At higher elevations, air pressure is less. When air pressure is less, water boils at a lower temperature. That means food does not get as hot, so it takes longer to cook. Water at sea level boils at 212 degrees F. At my home in Colorado (7000 feet above sea level) water boils at 199 degrees F. At the top of Mt. Everest (29,029 ft) water would boil at 161 degrees F.
Does the brown bear migrate?
Not really, in the true sense of the word. They will ,move from higher elevations to lower ones in search of food or mates, but not actually migrate.
Does it take longer to cook spagehtti at sea level or on a mountain?
The boiling temperature of water is dependent on the surrounding pressure. And air pressure decreases as you get higher up. As pressure decreases, so does the boiling point. This means that the water will start to boil faster on the mountain, but it will boil at a lower temperature. At a lower temperature, food takes longer to cook.
Why do foods require longer microwave cooking time at higher atitudes?
The boiling point of water goes down at higher altitudes, and so foods take longer to cook (because the temperature of the food doesn't usually exceed the boiling point of water).See the Related Questions about how elevation effects the boiling point of water.
How do you avoid grout in your food?
To avoid grout in your food place the dish higher up in your oven. This will cause the food to cook a little slower and will help you to avoid geout in your food.
Why do you need to cook some foods longer in the mountains?

What happens if you cook a ready meal and remove instead of pierce the film?
The steam is released. The steam helps to cook the food by steaming it, so removing rather than piercing will mean the food will take longer to cook through. The reason we have to pierce the film is because the steam can build up and cause the food to pop.
