Fun fact: IFF has (maybe had) a building right across the street from the CBS Broadcast Center. No windows, never saw anyone enter or exit. It fascinated me when I worked there.

Kinda wanna do some corporate espionage in the name of freeing the people from the shackles of these demons!

Afraid I would find Soylent Green, bc they are probably the worst of the worst

60 minutes did a story about the ultra-secretive world of the people who created these tastes/smells!

It really highlighted what a big part of the business it is.

This book looks fascinating & must predate the most recent Walker with the rearranged statue, it seems like a *must add* to my library

ART we LIKE: A Subtlety
A reconsideration of Kara Walker’s ‘A Subtlety’ one year after it closed. Gallery of photographs from the installation and a critique of the artwork from a personal space.

This was the single most important art moment in my life. Spent hours here, even as I was made increasingly uncomfortable throughout. To this day when I encounter sugar, I think about it. (Use alternate sweeteners mostly)

Took a ton of photos too. But a prevalent sadness endures.

Wearing a fitted with a velvet suit? Trash, need the menswear guy to ban this mess & shame them into stopping the madness.

In tv, in front of millions!
