Make that extremely tricky nothingness

Among its other virtues (including testing whether a stock that was made with the addition of lye, which was subsequently neutralized by the addition of hydrochloric acid (bonus: the reaction produces table salt) was safe to eat by eaing some), a recent post on low-temperature cooking contains the sentences "I verified this phenomenon by paying five bucks to drink a cup of cooking water from a New York City hot dog vendor" and "After hundreds of hot dogs were cooked in it, it is in equilibrium with the meat". Isn't that—being in equilibrium with the meat—in a way, at least, the goal of many Hellenistic philosophical schools?
