In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an \u003ci\u003eaverage\u003c\/i\u003e woman. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel-prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with--of all things--her mind. True chemistry results. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e But like science, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America's most beloved cooking show \u003ci\u003eSupper at Six\u003c\/i\u003e. Elizabeth's unusual approach to cooking (\"combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride\") proves revolutionary. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy.
