The real Willy Wonka: Scientists say three-course meal in a single stick of chewing gum is now a possibility
Food scientist Dave Hart believes that recent advances in nanotechnology, which deals with structures just millionths of a millimetre in size, could capture and release flavours in a precisely controlled way.“The tomato soup capsule would break on contact with saliva, followed by roast beef and blueberry pie in stronger structures - providing a sequential taste explosion as you chew harder.” [via]
Let’s hope celeb chefs take to this trend (some of us wouldn’t mind a buttery, three-course Paula Deen stick-of-gum meal)
Chewing gum is really gross; chewing gum we hate the most.
