Get a Whif

Harvard professor David Edwards has come up with a new way to consume chocolate. It's called "whiffing." The chocolate inhaler, Le Whif, puts approximately 50 milligrams of chocolate in your mouth in a single puff. One Whif will give you up to four puffs of chocolate. The no-calorie aerosol confection comes in mint chocolate, raspberry chocolate, mango chocolate and plain chocolate. The product launches in Paris later this month, but won't hit shelves in the U.S. until May.

As a chocolate lover and asthmatic, I'm a little upset that I didn't come up with this idea first. Jealousy aside, there is something mildly disturbing about the act of whiffing.

The first "whiffing recipes" accompany a new novel by Edwards, titled Whiff. Japanese Manga artist Junko Murata has provided illustrations for the book.
