If you can be satisfied by merely smelling the aroma of barbecued meat, then this bizarre invention by Japanese company Scentee is for you.
The ‘Hana Yakiniku’ or ‘Nose Grilled Meat’ kit works around the concept of “tasting and savoring food with your nose”.
The company believes that inhaling the wonderful scents of various mouth-watering dishes while consuming something plainer, like white rice, will help you cut the calories and extra expenditure.
With this in mind, they designed a series of food-scented cartridges that are meant to be attached to your smartphone.
It’s simple: download the free app, choose a flavor, insert the Scentee cartridge, and let your olfactory nerves do the work! Be sure to prepare a bowl of rice to go with your ‘scent’.
