"There you are with your dinner date, feeling as if everything is going along smoothly when suddenly you realize your companion&amp;#039;s gelatin dessert is signaling their discomfort. Is it the topic of conversation that&amp;#039;s making them uncomfortable? Your breath? The fact that their dessert is broadcasting their feelings to everyone around the dining room? If you happen to be in London this weekend, and if you can still get tickets, you&amp;#039;ll want to head to Belgrave Square where Britain&amp;#039;s most cutting edge \u2013 or   quirkiest \u2013 culinarians are throwing a five-day food extravaganza showcasing the history of food over 730 years. Called, appropriately enough, The Complete History of Food, the event is being organized by Bompas and Parr, who design &amp;quot;spectacular food experiences often working on an architectural scale with cutting edge technology.&amp;quot; And, yes, that mood-reading gelatin is just one of the event&amp;#039;s attractions and organizers are describing it as &amp;quot;the world&amp;#039;s first bio-responsive foods.&amp;quot; Working with designers and neuroscientists, Bompas and Parr have created a gelatin that will change &amp;quot;colour and wobble in response to your body&amp;#039;s autonomic system. The jellies change colour as you eat them in response to what mood you are in. The jellies are effectively highly accurate edible mood rings.&amp;quot; (You can find far more accessible gelatin recipes here) And if that doesn&amp;#039;t win you over, the live eels swimming around on the flooded dining floor just might. Other highlights include scratch and sniff TV dinners, an inflatable stomach large enough in which to crawl about, and an historic model of an iguanodon where they&amp;#039;ll be serving duck confit (because, really, doesn&amp;#039;t duck confit just cry out to be served in an inaccurate Victorian-era model of a dinosaur?). If all this sounds sufficiently bizarre, there&amp;#039;s good reason. The team of Bompas and Parr have been in the business of creating outrageous, wild, and wonderfully strange events and foods for a few years now. Take, for example, the milk jelly \u2013 or &amp;quot;occult jam&amp;quot; \u2013 they created which includes among its ingredients, &amp;quot;a tiny speck of the late princess of Wales&amp;#039; hair with gin, which is then combined with milk and sugar to create a product with a taste resembling condensed milk.&amp;quot;  Or, &amp;quot;Alcoholic Architecture, a walk in cocktail where visitors had to wear protective suits before entering a mist of vaporised gin and tonic, which they then inhaled.&amp;quot; Or even another party in which they literally flooded a building with 4 tons of alcohol, or their scratch and sniff screening of the cult movie &amp;quot;The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover&amp;quot; (because nothing cries out for a scratch and sniff element more than a movie about food, love, murder, and cannibalism). Tickets, by the way, are \u00A325 and include a full meal and four cocktails. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
