Has anyone been to a flavor tripping party? A lounge near where i live started doing them once a month and i want to go. It seems like it could be a lot of fun. Just wodnering if anyone has done it I can't seem to find any "bad stories" it seems safe but figured i'd ask around

if you don't know what it is here is a good article

    Looks pretty cool. Other than that I have nothing else to contribute here.

    Fixed.

    The moment you claim that you are a hipster, you cease to exist as one.
  • Can they make Salads taste like Rib Eye steaks and Apples taste like Bacon? If so this could be the single greatest thing I have ever read.
    If not, it is still pretty cool and I had not heard of this yet.

    I can think of various other applications that would be fantastic for this but will leave that to the imagination. (I am sick of drinking fucking pineapple juice. I hate that shit!) :lol:

    i've saw these hipsters around
    they wear their g/f's jeans

    i couldn't fit into any of my women's pants if i tried
    who the hell is the same size as their g/f anyhow? (my arms are the same size or bigger than her legs are)
    hipsters, chadwick, that's who... hipsters

    flavor tripping? i didn't read all 12 pages
    but um, how does eating a berry that makes sour foods taste sweet
    how does that make one trip as if on acid?

    One of my thighs is 33 inches around, that's bigger than some people's waistline. And no, my waist size is not 60 inches, it's 42 atm.

    My co-workers and I actually set up a little flavor -tripping lunch last month...we used these:
    mberry1.jpg

    Overall, the experience was pretty cool. It really changes your palate in a strange way. The tablets took a few minutes to dissolve and I would say it took about 5 minutes for it to begin to "kick in"...We tried all sorts of food..somethings changed more than others. My favorites were limes and grapefruit and most of my friends would agree. At one point I looked around and most of us were chomping into grapefruits that tasted like a sweet orange. My friend slathered her grapefruit with greek yogurt and claimed it tasted like a orange creamsicle :?
    I also really enjoyed granny smith apples dipped in Frank's hot sauce. :shock:
    The "trip" lasted a solid 45-55 minutes. We actually want to have a follow-up flavor tripping happy hour that involves Guinness and hot wings :D

    Feel free to pm if you have any more questions :)
    Show #13 was a lucky one for me....

    what i read said it changed everything not just taste
    maybe i can't read correctly :?

    edit... copied from the articale
    "Everything feels, looks, sounds, even tastes different. Everyone around you is going wild, telling you to try more and more things."

    feels, looks, and sounds different...ok.

    what does it make beer taste like?
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Chad-
    Just changes taste..you'll need a different pill for the rest...
    It is a protein called miraculin that blocks the sour taste buds, so everything bitter/hot/sour tastes sweet.
    The limes were amazing.

    I read an article that some woman squeezed lemon into her Guinness..drank it down and said it tasted like a chocolate shake... :?

    They prefer talking at concerts than actually listening to the music. Yeah, I've seen it.

    I didn't think they went to concerts...I thought they went to those coffee house spoken word poetry beatbox thingies...
