Several embodiments include a cooking instrument. The cooking instrument can select a food cooking recipe and identify relative areas in a cooking chamber to place at least two portions of food. The relative areas would match the food cooking recipe. The cooking instrument can display information associated with an instruction to place the at least two portions of food over the relative areas. The cooking instrument can then determine a heating sequence in accordance with the food cooking recipe and control, based on the heating sequence, a heating system to directionally transfer heat under different heating characteristics respectively to the at least two portions of the food at the identified relative areas in the cooking chamber.

White goniochromatic packaging article. The package wall containing a composition useful for blocking light in the spectrum ranges from about 200 nm to about 1200 nm. The composition has polyester, polymethylpentene, and a light scattering pigment. The composition optionally includes at least one other colorant. Each of the polymethylpentene and the light scattering pigment comprise about 0.1 to about 0.5 weight percent of the wall. The polyester and polymethylpentene are immiscible and when subjected to orientation stresses the composition produces a goniochromatic packaging article.

An ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition is provided, which contains an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer and an iron compound, wherein the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer has an ethylene content of 20 to 60 mol %, wherein the iron compound is present in a proportion of 0.01 to 100 ppm on a metal basis based on the weight of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer composition.
