Most of us are blessed to utilize five senses when consuming food: we touch, smell, hear, see, and taste our food. But what if we did not utilize one of our senses? Will our food have a different taste?
The concept of “dining in the dark” entails exactly that. You are either blindfolded or you dine in complete darkness. In either case, you have to rely on your other four senses to figure out what you are eating. So next time you are having a party, you can have a new innovative, affordable and exciting theme!!!
