Executive summary: Various spice mixes designed to be
both tasty and to induce thirst.
Using simple clinical trials, analyze different
combinations of spices to determine which combinations
of spices are most effective at eliciting thirst (e.g.,
provide food and water to subjects and see how
much
water they drink).
Then, sell the powder as a product for helping
purchasers drink more water.
Possible customers:
People who have difficulty regulating their water
intake (I'll note that the thirst response tends to weaken
with age).
People who think drinking more water will make them
healthier.
People who tend to buy any supplement with the
phrase "all natural" in the name.

Or too much of just about any spice at all. |

Sports drinks tend to be self-propagating, what with the salts for "electrolyte replacement". |

Salt and vinegar crisps do an excellent job of
increasing my need to drink many pints of beer in
the pub. |
