Still Waters Posted December 31, 2013 #1 Share Posted December 31, 2013 A feast of fruity flavours including peach snow, edible banana confetti and orange-scented bubbles are set to descend on revellers at London's New Year's Eve celebrations. The aim is for an estimated 50,000 revellers, in an area around the size of three football pitches, to be able to taste and smell the party atmosphere when they flock to the banks of the River Thames for the annual fireworks display. http://www.telegraph...orks-party.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keel M. Posted December 31, 2013 #2 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Pardon me, but aren't all fireworks displays automatically multi-sensory? You see the lights, you hear the big KABOOM, you smell the burnt gunpowder and most of all, you feel the rumble deep inside you. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except instead of the smell of burnt gunpowder you get - there are to be clouds of apple, cherry and strawberry mist, peach snow, plus thousands of big bubbles filled with Seville orange-flavoured smoke and 40,000 grams of edible banana confetti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Wearer of Hats Posted January 1, 2014 #4 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Nah, you need the gunpowder smell. It'd be like going to the movies and not smelling popcorn or going on a train and not smelling stale urine. It'll have lost something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+and-then Posted January 2, 2014 #5 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I can remember some displays in the 60's where, if you weren't careful, you'd get hot cinders on your upturned face! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
