On the Nose

Realising that the majority of commuters rush down a hurried, boring breakfast before dashing off to catch the fast train to Sydney, local chef Gordon Blue will soon market a cereal to add interest to your morning.

Perfumed breakfast bubbles.

Made from puffed wheat, the individual grains are filled with fragrances to excite the nostrils, and flavours to excite the taste buds.

Bacon and egg bubbles will allow vegetarians to enjoy the ultimate breakfast aroma while remaining true to their regimen. Curry essence will delight connoisseurs of Indian cuisine.

Chocolate bubbles which tantalise the nostrils will prove a boon to dieters – you can't inhale kilojoules.

Some flavours carry subliminal benefits that motivate us to get on with specific tasks. The acrid odour of heat rub is one of those designed to encourage athletes to push aside their breakfast until they finish training.

Do you habitually gloom around the room? A dash of laughing gas in your plate and you'll greet the day with a grin. Your family will love you for it and your friends will stop avoiding you.

Depressants are also available for hyperactive souls whose enthusiasm for life wears out their companions.

Eat them with milk or just grab a handful from the pack – they're a banquet in a bubble.
