WASHINGTON 鈥� It鈥檚 got all the trappings of illicit, rock 鈥榥鈥� roll decadence, as well as a bit of an energy boost, but without that whole illegality problem: Putting cocoa powder up your nose.
recently wrote about her own experience with snorting chocolate, and found it worked to give her a bit of a lift 鈥� 鈥減utting things up your nose typically does, or so I鈥檝e heard鈥� 鈥� as well as occasional coughing and the shakes. (It goes perhaps without saying that you should be even more meticulous than a snorter of illicit substances about wiping your nose afterward.)
Perhaps not surprisingly, there鈥檚 a device for the experience: the Chocolate Shooter, which 鈥� perhaps even less surprisingly 鈥� was created for a birthday party for Ron Wood and Charlie Watts of The Rolling Stones. You can get the contraption, with two tiny spoons on hinges that shoot the fine cocoa powder (in raspberry and ginger flavors) up your schnozzle, for 45 euros (about $48) at , Eber writes.
It must be said, however, that Eber鈥檚 final determination is that snorting the cocoa won鈥檛 replace eating chocolate, or grabbing some coffee, in her daily routine.
