Inhaled Chocolate: Le Whif
by: Taly Weiss May 27, 2009
Le Whif is a revolutionary new way of eating chocolate - by breathing it! No calories attached! Try it to stimulate your appetite or accompany Le Whif with your coffee.
It comes in four flavors: mint chocolate, raspberry chocolate, mango chocolate, and plain chocolate.
Harvard professor David Edwards, lead inventor of Le Whif, says:
“Over the centuries we’ve been eating smaller and smaller quantities at shorter and shorter intervals. It seemed to us that eating was tending toward breathing, so, with a mix of culinary art and aerosol science, we’ve helped move eating habits to their logical conclusion. We call it whiffing.”
More such culinary innovations are being developed by the Foodlab at Le Laboratoire, Edwards’ art and science innovation center in central Paris.
More inhaled food & drink innovations I spotted:
- Inhaled alcohol (as a product),
- Inhaled alcohol atmosphere (a bar: Alcoholic Architecture, UK)
- Inhaled caffeine
