The face you make when you realize everything you thought about flavor was wrong… 😬

Some fun in the Sovereign Flavors Lab, where Joe had the chance to talk with flavor scientist Lauren Muhlberger! Did you know there are fewer certified flavor experts than there are pilots!? 🤯 On the latest episode, discover what flavor actually is, and learn how our senses combine to create what we know as flavor. What’s a flavor you’re obsessed with right now? Let us know in the comments! 👅
