This looks quite futuristic considering it was recorded in the 80's

I know it’s for learning purposes, but she could’ve put some seasoning on that steak

Am I insane? Or was this a repost? I remember watching a video so similar to this that came with a short series that talked about science and chemistry and how it related to cooking. If this is that video, it is the one that got me really into culinary.

Can someone explain something to me? For the maillard reaction it needs sugars and amino acids. But steak has no sugar, so how does that work?
