Raspberries: Food Quotes
“Ethyl formate, which gives raspberries their flavour and smells of rum, has now been found in deep space. Astronomers searching for the building blocks of life in a giant dust cloud at the heart of the Milky Way have concluded that it tastes vaguely of raspberries.”
Ian Sample, science correspondent. The Guardian (April 21, 2009)
“It does happen to give raspberries their flavour, but there are many other molecules that are needed to make space raspberries.”
Arnaud Belloche, an astronomer at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Bonn, Germany (The Guardian, April, 2009)
