A brand of food that tastes like one food but looks like another! Pizza that tastes like hot dogs and hot dogs that tastes like pizza! Brownie flavored potato chips. Add some excitement to your lunch with the random flavor box of random flavored objects that resemble cookies.

       you might like to think of a flavour wheel like a colour chart.

       I feel very compelled to fishbone this one.. but my vote keeps getting inverted.

       what if the ice cream tasted like clams? or something one really doesn't like.

xandram, Mar 07 2006
  

       Honey, take your medicine. It tastes like pizza, honestly. Remember how the steak tasted like ice cream? Really, mom? Absolutely, you bet! Oh okay >{gulp}< BLURRRGGGHHH! Blechch that's disgusting! Gotcha dear! Feel better!

       You got my bun. This would be a lot of laughs +

       The world would be a healthier place if salad greens tasted like chocolate. (+)

egbert, Mar 08 2006
  

       very good idea, unless you got a bad flavor, as xandram said. Pretty much impossible, but hey this is the halfbakery! (+)

       It just does not seem right eating cake and tasting sushi.   

       Gave me a good laugh though.

       lol@flavour wheel.   

       could you combine flavors, maybe, like where there is red-orange or blue-green, we could have something like...oh, say...   

       shrimp-chocolate...   

       cheese-apple...   

       there's a whole slew of flavour possibilities. now if only we could find people to test them?

       I'll have a ananab please.

       I wonder how recognisable the flavours (especially artificial flavours) would be when taken out of context? For instance, Prawn Cocktail crisps only taste of prawn cocktail because (a) it says "Prawn Cocktail" on the packet and (b) I have come to associate that flavour with the words on the packet, despite the fact that they actually taste nothing like a prawn cocktail. I wonder if mashed potatoes flavoured the same way would be recognised as being prawn cocktaily.

       chedder matches apple. Tastes good! Try it!

       this is the best idea ive ever heard of!!! exept it would be kinda confusing. whatever, its awsome.   

       [egbert] thats true. then, we would kill less cows and chikens

       //this is the best idea ive ever heard of!!!// I'm with you on that one. I hesitated a bit over vaccination, heavier-than-air flight and the microprocessor, but in the end the decision was clear.

       From the name alone I got some kind of idea of food that, when eaten, negates the aftertaste left in your mouth from other foods.
