Now inhale chocolate sans the guilt - courtesy Le Whif
April 11th, 2009 - 12:10 pm ICT by ANILondon, Apr 11 (ANI): Chocoholics’ dream has finally come true - a sweet treat packed with tiny particles of chocolate and zero calories has been invented!
Brainchild of Paris-based professor David Edwards, boffins have created a chocolate sans calories, which dieters can inhale.
Users breathe chocolate powder into their mouth from the 1.50- pounds plastic cylinder called Le Whif.
It comes in four flavours - raspberry, mint, mango and plain - and can be used several times.
Edwards believes people eat so fast today that they are already on the way towards “breathing” food, The Sun reported.
He said: “We’ve helped move eating habits to their logical conclusion. We call it whiffing.”
Tom Hadfield, who is launching Le Whif in France later this month, said: “It fills your mouth with almost pure chocolate. It tastes really good.”
Others being developed include a mint Whif to be inhaled with lamb.
Hadfield said, “Eventually we could have three course meals this way.” (ANI)
