     Le Whif, an inhaler (吸入剂) that allows chocolate lovers to meet their needs whenever they please
without putting on weight, is to be released in British stores. The invention, called the world's first breathable
food by its creators, lets consumers suck in the taste of chocolate or coffee while taking on less than one
calorie. Its makers claim it will enable dieters to enjoy their favorite snacks without worrying about their
waistline.
     The lipstick-style tube contains hundreds of milligrams of tiny food particles which are small enough to
become conveyed by air, but too large to enter the lungs. Each Le Whif contains enough flavor for about
eight to ten whiffs (喷射) and costs 1.99 on its own, or £4.99 for a pack of three. The inhaler is available
in chocolate, raspberry chocolate and mint chocolate models as well as coffee flavor, which gives a dose of
caffeine equivalent to a small short of strong black coffee.
     It was invented by Prof. David Edwards. He said Le Whif was not designed to replace food but could be
used to increase dining experiences, such as allowing people to sample a variety of dishes from restaurant
menus before ordering their meal.
     He said, "In terms of living off whiffing we aren't even close to being there. But there clearly has been a
revolution over the last few years where we are eating smaller amounts of food more frequently and choosing
food or its aesthetic (审美的) pleasure. We will be launching new whiffing experiences probably every six
