love it or hate it . le whif

I’m an admitted chocoholic. A chocolate bar is a daily staple in my diet – a dreamy, creamy, decadent staple. The problem is my Mother told me more than once that “a moment on the lips is a lifetime on the hips”. And I’m waiting for that day when my chocolate-eating ways will catch up to me.

Le Whif says worry no more. Why? They’ve create a revolutionary new way of eating chocolate – by breathing it! 200 mg of tiny chocolate powder particles are puffed into the mouth, for all the taste of chocolate in under 1 calorie. Le Whif is available in 4 flavors: mint chocolate, raspberry chocolate, mango chocolate, and plain chocolate.

No doubt this would be a really novel experience at an event. And I could see it doing very well at a fashion event, where being seen with anything other than a cigarette and a luxury water bottle is almost equal to blasphemy. Will it replace my need for chocolate? I think not. I would feel cheated out of the simple delights of unwrapping the package, chewing, tasting textures and even the guilt that ensues.

I think some things are just worth the risk. What do you think?

In BizBash’s latest version of The Scout, they run a great feature on economical alternatives to fancy passed hors d’oeuvres or dinner. So, what do you think about hard-boiled quail eggs with ground pepper, chili, and lime salt mixes? Love it or hate it?

This NY Times article states that squirrels are low fat and may appear on a dinner plate near you very soon.

Need I ask what your thoughts are?

 love it or hate it . laser etched goodies

A portable system, for events, that can laser-etch a cell phone, a laptop, an iPod or virtually any other compact product, with an image (logo, icon, name, etc). I recently experienced this at an event and my table and I brainstormed some very interesting possibilities. For instance, give your event guests a branded keychain and let them laser-etch the other side with whatever they want.
