You gotta have a gimmick, and to my mind the best gimmick is jazz-infused smoked salmon.
There used to be a salmon smokery in north London. Aside from the juniper and beech wood, Ole Hansen (proprietor) would, once a day, sit down and play piano to the hanging fish – live jazz and occasional singing.
Watch: Michel Roux Jr meets Hansen & Lydersen (YouTube).
I argue that the sound waves penetrate the flesh of the fish and it goes in and it just gives and it enriches, he says.
I found out about jazz-infused smoked salmon a few years back from a TV show about the world’s most expensive foods.
It’s such a good gimmick! The story was everywhere for a few years with Hansen playing his jazz. It would be a great story to tell your dinner guests.
And that’s fine, right? Taste is some % psychological. Red wine tastes better if you know it’s an expensive bottle. Same same, I’m ok with that.
But I don’t suppose the bebop energies actually live in the memory of the fish molecules and transmit to your boogie-woogie taste bugs or whatever. Or maybe?
(Btw another of the world’s most expensive foods is a kind of barnacle which is so hard to gather that a number of the people gathering it… die? Every year? And this is part of how it’s marketed? For avoidance of doubt this is a terrible, terrible gimmick.)
Anyway, Swiss cheese tastes better when aged with hip-hop.
Last September, Swiss cheesemaker Beat Wampfler and a team of researchers from the Bern University of Arts placed nine 22-pound wheels of Emmental cheese in individual wooden crates in Wampfler’s cheese cellar. Then, for the next six months each cheese was exposed to an endless, 24-hour loop of one song using a mini-transducer, which directed the sound waves directly into the cheese wheels.
Six months of “Jazz (We’ve Got)” by A Tribe Called Quest.
the cheese exposed to music had a milder flavor compared to the non-musical cheese
And:
hip-hop cheese had a stronger aroma and stronger flavor than other samples.
And:
The cheeses were then sampled by a jury of culinary experts during two rounds of a blind taste test.
And:
the hip-hop cheese came out on top.
You can’t argue with science.
Well you can but let’s not.
Here’s the website (in German) and the press release (in English).
Cheez-It has teamed up with streaming music site Pandora to create what they are billing as “the first-ever sonically-aged cheese snack” in the form of limited-edition Cheez-It x Pandora Aged by Audio crackers.
The cheese used to make the crackers was aged for six and a half months using a whole hip-hop playlist. Congrats to whichever agency pitched that. Food & Wine, May 2022.
It is easy to mock.
BUT, rather than lazily disbelieve,
it almost feels truer to say that vibe propagates in a multimodal fashion through the world by mechanisms yet unknown. And I am kinda down with it? It is a more accurate description of the universe that I inhabit than a claim that vibe does not propagate?
Let’s just be open to all of the above.
And then let’s consumerise the emerging science of vibe gastroacoustics and take it to CES 2024.
Because it seems like there is a new fad oven every year or two… George Foreman grill. Instant Pot. Air fryers. And we can get in on that.
So let me propose a new Samsung oven with integrated proving drawer and Spotify built right in.
And a recipe book, just like microwaves used to ship with microwave-specific recipes. For example:

‘Yes, we’ll see them together some Saturday afternoon then,’ she said. ‘I won’t have any hand in your not going to Cathedral on Sunday morning. I suppose we must be getting back. What time was it when you looked at your watch just now?’ "In China and some other countries it is not considered necessary to give the girls any education; but in Japan it is not so. The girls are educated here, though not so much as the boys; and of late years they have established schools where they receive what we call the higher branches of instruction. Every year new schools for girls are opened; and a great many of the Japanese who formerly would not be seen in public with their wives have adopted the Western idea, and bring their wives into society. The marriage laws have been arranged so as to allow the different classes to marry among[Pg 258] each other, and the government is doing all it can to improve the condition of the women. They were better off before than the women of any other Eastern country; and if things go on as they are now going, they will be still better in a few years. The world moves. "Frank and Fred." She whispered something to herself in horrified dismay; but then she looked at me with her eyes very blue and said "You'll see him about it, won't you?

"Surely," said the minister, "surely." There might have been men who would have remembered that Mrs. Lawton was a tough woman, even for a mining town, and who would in the names of their own wives have refused to let her cross the threshold of their homes. But he saw that she was ill, and he did not so much as hesitate. "I feel awful sorry for you sir," said the Lieutenant, much moved. "And if I had it in my power you should go. But I have got my orders, and I must obey them. I musn't allow anybody not actually be longing to the army to pass on across the river on the train." "Throw a piece o' that fat pine on the fire. Shorty," said the Deacon, "and let's see what I've got." "Further admonitions," continued the Lieutenant, "had the same result, and I was about to call a guard to put him under arrest, when I happened to notice a pair of field-glasses that the prisoner had picked up, and was evidently intending to appropriate to his own use, and not account for them. This was confirmed by his approaching me in a menacing manner, insolently demanding their return, and threatening me in a loud voice if I did not give them up, which I properly refused to do, and ordered a Sergeant who had come up to seize and buck-and-gag him. The Sergeant, against whom I shall appear later, did not obey my orders, but seemed to abet his companion's gross insubordination. The scene finally culminated, in the presence of a number of enlisted men, in the prisoner's wrenching the field-glasses away from me by main force, and would have struck me had not the Sergeant prevented this.
