You know what the world needs now? Here's a hint: It's not love, sweet love. It's huffable chocolate. Yep. Some dudes from Harvard and the Illinois Institute of Technology have developed chocolate that you actually breathe, rather than eat, the Chicago Tribune reports. It's called Le Whif. It comes as an inhaler-type thingy full of chocolate particles. The science-types say those particles are too big to get in your lungs and make you cough. This strikes me as a little odd, because if I was going to choose a kind of particle to inhale, it would probably be a small one. But in this blog, we'll leave the science to those who didn't just last weekend tell their husband that she did not know how to divide 2/3 of a cup of sugar in half, and therefore had to make a full recipe of approximately eleventy-bajillion cookies. I digress. Anyway, this dude named David Edwards, who helped develop the delicious chocolate air, says a hit from Le Whif coats the user's mouth with a chocolatey taste at less than 1 calorie a pop ... err ... puff. But Edwards is full of ... interesting ... ideas. He also said he envisions a new era of aerosol eating. Not kidding. "The big picture here is that for thousands of years we've eaten with our hands or, more recently, with chopsticks and forks and things. We're sort of moving on. People have been whiffing [my product] here in Paris for the past few months," Edwards told the Tribune. Riiiiiight. Edwards says people who are too lazy to chew will be able to purchase a bundle of 24 Le Whif thingies online for about $50. Each Le Whif contains four puffs. Bon appetit? You decide. 1 CommentsLeave a comment |
