Taste What You're Missing Book Signing

Join us for an inspired talk, tasting and book signing with America's favorite food inventor, Barb Stuckey.

Sunday, April 1st, 2012
2:00pm - 4:30pm

Taste What You’re Missing: The Passionate Eater’s Guide to Why Good Food Tastes Good explains the physiology and psychology of taste in an approachable, humorous way that expands our ability to experience and appreciate the food we eat and how we think about the way we cook.  Learn how to further develop our palates by understanding the building blocks of taste: sweet, sour, bitter, salt and umami as well as the critical importance of smell and sight, and the unexpected contribution of hearing and touch. Only 20% of what we taste happens in the mouth!

Barb will lead us through some illuminating exercises in tasting and you will gain insight into your "Taster Type”.

This is a complimentary event ~ the author will be available to sign copies of her book after the talk.

Author Barb Stuckey is a professional food developer who leads the marketing, food trend tracking, and consumer research functions at Mattson, North America’s largest independent developer of new foods and beverages. She and her HyperTaster fiance divide their time between San Francisco and Healdsburg.
