Expensive food you eat/try through your nose. It will come concentrated and in extremely small amounts that can be absorbed by your mucus membranes. Taste what you want to eat before you buy it! Ever wonder what shark fin soup tasted like? Wait no longer. Spray and taste.
Original idea -do not steal.
