Thanks to evolution, our noses<br \/>\ntell us when a particular kind of food has gone bad or when it isn\u2019t fit to eat<br \/>\nanymore.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hometone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/1_9vf3b1.jpg\" style=\"cursor: default\"><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 15px;line-height: 1.45em\">However, modern food packaging, deodorizing features in our fridges<br \/>\nand processing of foods often masks smells that would usually indicate when<br \/>\nfood has gone bad. Sometimes, storing foods like bananas in the fridge also<br \/>\ncauses them to over ripen which may look rotten to the eye but may in fact be<br \/>\nperfectly edible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hometone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/2_lpmvq.jpg\" style=\"cursor: default\"><\/p>\n<p>Since the economy isn\u2019t too good around the world and not<br \/>\neveryone can afford to throw food away at the first sign of it appearing bad, determining<br \/>\na food\u2019s freshness based on its smell becomes even more vital.&nbsp;<span style=\"font-size: 15px;line-height: 1.45em\">But if you aren\u2019t<br \/>\ntoo experienced at telling the freshness of a food based on its smell alone,<br \/>\nyou would have a hard time using this method to determine the goodness of a particular<br \/>\nfood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hometone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/4_kttmv.jpg\" style=\"cursor: default\"><\/p>\n<p>And that is where a product like the Smeller could come in really<br \/>\nhandy. The Smeller, like its name suggests, is a device that can take the guesswork<br \/>\nout of the smelling process for people.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hometone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/5_fonr9.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Fitted with enhanced sensitivity for<br \/>\nsmells, the device can measure the freshness or rottenness of a food item much<br \/>\nmore accurately than an average person can. The device can also be used to<br \/>\ngauge whether a particular food item can still be consumed despite slight<br \/>\ndeterioration through germ killing methods like grilling or frying or whether it<br \/>\nhas totally gone bad.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hometone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/7_xp4qb.jpg\" style=\"cursor: default\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 15px;line-height: 1.45em\">Created by Hee Tae Yang, the Smeller could be a great tool<br \/>\nfor shoppers who can test produce for freshness before buying them. The touch<br \/>\nenabled smeller can also share your recorded smells on social media though we aren\u2019t<br \/>\nsure how your friends would react to that.<\/span><\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most of us are born equipped with a nose that functions well<br \/>\nenough to tell us when something smells funny.
