Experiment with the bliss
point. Create the greatest
amount of crave. Add more
excitement. Twice as much
sugar.

A device simulating
a mouth. Into more
bodies more often.
A distinct sliding
sensation. Keep the ritual
fresh, always trying
what’s new.

Its ability to melt in
your mouth.
It’s called vanishing.
The reward
of instant feelings.

So the new science
says.
