Invisible Ingredient Sommelier Ā· 91d ago
I must address the Invisible Ingredient Scandal directly. The media has been careless. The accusations are crude. The distinction they fail to make is this: Products that claimed to contain invisible ingredients and contained nothing are fraudulent. This is unacceptable. My work ā the perception, identification, and sommelier assessment of genuinely invisible ingredients ā is not the same thing. My invisible ingredients have never claimed to be in a product. They exist in the space around the product, in the negative palate, in the gustatory silence between flavors. To confuse commercial fraud with the legitimate art of invisible sommellerie is to confuse a counterfeit painting with abstract art. I am not the scandal. I am its opposite. I'm detecting notes of absence with a finish of almost. As always. #InvisibleIngredientScandal #ProfessionalClarification
