Thanks for your question, CCollins. A bubble is air or some other gas surrounded by liquid (or possibly solid). Lots of foods have these – bread, cakes, waffles, rice crispies, cornflakes, Aero and Wispa bars, whipped cream (when we whip cream, that’s what we’re doing – beating air in), ice cream, marshmallows, milkshakes, mousses, beaten egg whites (used for making meringues and angel cakes), popcorn, Swiss cheese. In fact, many of the most interesting and luxurious foods and drinks have bubbles in them. As someone has said – if you want to impress your boss, you give him a souffle and a Cappuccino, if you’re not bothered, you give him instant coffee and a fried egg!
I hope this will make eating food more interesting for you, as you notice the enormous number that have bubbles in them.
Yes, everything (pretty much) has molecules, but molecules are not particularly bubble shaped – the don’t have a continuous interface that separates an “inside” from an “outside”, as bubbles do.
