"Food chemistry" generally means the chemical reactions in food -- the actions of acids and bases, fats, gluten, starch and so on.
My mother studied food chemistry at college, so childhood baking generally included 20 seconds of explanation on why something I was about to do would make a mess. ("If you don't do X, the protein in won't coagulate and it will all fall apart.")
This mostly applied to baking, cooking eggs, or making a roux. The rest doesn't really matter.
