Has anyone tried David Burke’s flavor sprays? I have heard a lot about them lately – it is probably just a media blitz from the company, but I am a little bit intrigued, as David Burke is a pretty well known chef and I cannot imagine he would put his name to something that wasn’t at least a little tasty. Cheesecake and Chocolate Raspberry Truffle sound good, but I am not so sure about Smoked Bacon. I could surely see how this could not only help out in the calorie department, but might be a little less expensive in the household budget as well.
From cbs2chicago.com:
David Burke’s flavor sprays ($5.95; 888-779-7177; www.flavor-spray.com) — all zero-calorie, nonfat and cholesterol free — let you savor your favorite “bad” foods without the guilt. Just choose the flavor you’ve been yearning for (there are about 30 varieties) and spritz it onto a healthy food.
In a Good Housekeeping Institute test of three sprays, two were a hit. Volunteers liked how the Birthday Cake flavor lightly sweetened a bland rice cake. The Bacon version, tasted on a hard-boiled egg, earned even higher praise. But you might stay away from the Ranch flavor — this spray got a thumbs-down for its pungent odor.
