Now the same scientists have come up with the coffee spray that gives you as much caffeine as found in one single espresso.

A 'whiffer' can get up to nine hits from an individual stick, depending on how hard they inhale.

All of Le Whifs are biodegradable, organic and contain less than one calorie

Mobile food trucks are tweeting their locations. Local chefs are posting photos and descriptions of new menu items. And it's even possible to find recipes (that would be "twecipes" in the ever-expanding Twitter vernacular).

For those more interested in what's being served at A16 tonight than they are the latest Paris Hilton gossip, Twitter's amorphous question of "What are you doing right now?" has essentially been recast as "What are you eating?" or "What are you cooking?"

on his philosophical and often abstract questions that relate to his
experimental cooking: "Did the '80s crush the opportunity for smoked
strawberries?" - sfgate
