Okay, so it’s not exactly an electric spoon, but it is a spoon that ‘adds a mild electric current to your food. It’s SpoonTEK from Tasteboosters which they call a new tongue sensory utensil. They say that the mild electric current excites the taste buds to enhance flavor, heighten taste and improve after-taste. So how does it work? You hold SpoonTEK normally with your finger making contact with the electrode on the handle. Food makes contact with the electrode in the spoon bowl. An LED light on the handle will glow to indicate that the SpoonTEK system is working and delivering a mild electric current that passes through the food you are eating. You won’t feel it, but your taste buds will feel it. The company feels SpoonTEK offers new taste experiences, new recipes for a healthier diet with less sugar & salt, and a new appreciation for tongue sensory. Made with high quality, food safe materials, and simple to use. Lowest price was $29.00 on their Indiegogo page on 2/5/20. That can change at any time. Since this was a virtual event I did not get to try this spoon.
