If you like cheese you'll most probably like a sandwich made entirely from cheese. Slice a soft blue brie cheese. Cambozola will suit the needs. Then make slices of a hard cheese, the Swiss for example. Then you just need to mix them together like sandwiches. In the simplest case one slice of cambozolla and one slice of swiss. You can mix them with other kind of cheese. These sandwiches are good as snacks for wine, beer or just as they are. The "secret" here is to make a mix of very...

Excessive consumption of sweets may not only adversely affect the body, but lower your self-esteem... Try to halve the amount of sweets you eat. Do not keep such products in full view. Better, buy enough to eat at one time. Psychologists advise to eat desserts in a relaxed atmosphere, sitting at the table. Do not eat them on the move. When making cakes, pies try to taste them less. Remember: food should be savored. Then you need less sweet to be full. Eat...

An electronic tongue is able to differentiate between different types of sparkling wine based on the amount of sugar added during production. The device uses mathematical processing combined with chemical measurement systems and an artificial neural network to identify the characteristics of different types of wines. The Electronic Tongue could also be used to detect defects during the wine making process.

The idea is to create an instant spritzer that will turn a fresh lime or lemon into a tidy spray of flavor. The serrated bottom of the spritzer will stab into the citrus, leaving the pump spray end sticking out from the fruit. The pump action will be strong enough to deliver a full spray of citrus for salads, marinades, or drinks, and the device will come apart for cleaning.

The idea is to create a small easy to use sensor that can be dipped into a drink to determine if it has been spiked with the date rape drugs GHB and ketamine. The sensor will be able to detect the colorless and odorless drug by the way it will change the optical properties of the drink. A 'signal change' caused by how light will move through the drugged drink will trigger an alarm, which could be a beeping noise or flashing light for use in loud, dark environments.

The shopping trolley handle will use LED's to let shoppers keep track of each item's food miles. The handle mounted device will be able to scan a product's barcode and determine its food miles, or how far it has traveled to reach the store. A series of LEDs will light up in relationship to how many food miles each item costs, with a larger number of lights indicating more miles. The handle can also be calibrated to measure factors such as fat, salt, and seasonality.

A new food translation application will be quicker and more accurate than existing similar applications while taking up less memory space. Users will download the region specific apps to their mobile devices, eliminating the need for an internet connection. The application will go beyond simply a literal translation of the name of the dish and also provide an image of the dish and a list of its ingredients. People with food allergies will be able to program the app to signal a...

A new, inexpensive sensor able to measure the ripeness of fruit could help cut back on food waste by allowing grocers to determine which batches of fruit should be sold first. Fruit gives off ethylene as it ripens, which is currently monitored by costly sensors in fruit warehouses. The new sensors will be small and inexpensive enough to be used in individual grocery stores. The sensors will be made up of an array of carbon nanotubes with attached copper atoms. Ethylene particles...
