A. Blommer cited for cocoa dust emissions




The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency cited the Blommer Chocolate Coo's Chicago plant earlier this month for violating

limits on opacity, or the amount of light blocked by the factory's grinder dust. After a neighbor complained about the smell of burnt chocolate, the EPA sent an inspector to the plant in early Sept., leading to the citing and possibly a future government fine. Blommer

says it is installing new filtering equipment to prevent opacity violations from recurring.

F. New study reveals how taste buds react to sugar

According to a study conducted by The University of Manchester and The University of Maryland School of Medicine, a lowcalorie sweetener that tastes exactly like sugar could be just around the corner. The study measured for the first time how sugar and

some synthetic sweeteners interact with two types of taste receptors on the tongue. Some synthetic sweeteners only interact with one receptor while sugar interacts with both. Sucralose, or Splenda (manufactured by Tate & Lyle) interacted with both receptors, but with

a greater intensity than sugar.
