Description

Everyone loves food, so it's only fitting that the Museum of Food and Drink opens their new location in Dumbo on Valentine's Day. Flavor: The World to Your Brain, curated by food scientists and culinary anthropologists, explores what happens within our brain and bodies when we experience the flavors of food, what happens with engineered food and what artificial flavors mean and do.
