unless chocolate causes cancer...which it doesn't...does it... Heck everything causes cancer these days, I bet looking at a topless woman will give you eye cancer, or playing videos games will give you thumb cancer.

I think people will buy these things to try it, and eventually the novelty will wear off. I certainly don't think it'll replace our meals like the article says. Eating isn't just about taste, it's also about texture, aroma and even presentation. All the senses are involved. I will buy one when it becomes available though.

Lol we are a chaotic species that has a huge thing called imagination, if someone comes up with the idea to create this then fair play to them, if it IS able to help people with addictions then that is great, if it is a useless thing that just makes chocolate smells, then bury the invention in a deep dark pit and never speak of it again, and then hit the drawing board again. By the sounds of it you would not be h... [More]

I'm lost for words. "Le Whif" seems to be more like something you don't want to do at Pépé le Pew. This will only lead to a chocolated flavored cocaine/heroine at the year's end as the same people who made this invention are on hard drugs to begin with.
