General Systems Theory is based on the assumption that there are universal principles of organization, which hold for all systems, be they physical, chemical, biological, mental or social. The mechanistic world view seeks universality by reducing everything to its material constituents.

Yeah, you can cool soft/thick foods by
pouring food into a shallow metal pan. The food cannot be more
than 4 inches deep. For very thick foods like refried beans or chowder,
you must have the food no more than 3 inches deep. You can also cool
soft/thick foods using an ice and water bath.
