Technology Analyst: The programmers at the website Cyberepicuria have recently made a breakthrough, perfecting a special program in which users can enter any foods or any flavors they like, and the website will suggest different foods and food combinations with somewhat different flavors that the users will also like. The website will charge users a modest fee for access. Users of the beta version have reported that, because of the program's suggestions, they have discovered whole new categories of food they have come to enjoy. Because Cyberepicuria is the only website offering this service, anyone who invests in Cyberepicuria right now is likely to double or triple their money in a very short time.

  • B According to surveys, as many as 60% of Americans report being tired of eating the same foods over and over again.
  • C The flavor or taste of any food depends on number of complex chemical properties, making it an extremely difficult quality to model with a computer program.
  • D The human experience of a taste of any food has more to do, than most people realize, with the subtle scents received by the olfactory system.
