Scientist Develops Caffeinated Doughnuts
Jan 26, 7:40 AM (ET)
DURHAM. N.C. (AP) - That cup of coffee just not getting it done anymore? How about a Buzz Donut or a Buzzed Bagel? That's what Doctor Robert Bohannon, a Durham, North Carolina, molecular scientist, has come up with. Bohannon says he's developed a way to add caffeine to baked goods, without the bitter taste of caffeine. Each piece of pastry is the equivalent of about two cups of coffee.
While the product is not on the market yet, Bohannon has approached some heavyweight companies, including Krispy Kreme, Dunkin' Donuts and Starbucks about carrying it.

Heavyweight companies... Heavyweight additives.
Everytime I drink caffeine it makes me go to the toilet too often throughout the day.
Coffee and tea seems to make me nervous.
I drink uncaffeinated Chicory instead in the mornings and night.

"Scientist Develops?"
WTF?
Adding ingredients to food doesn't constitute 'scientific developement'. It's called 'cooking'.

A chef can still 'develop' a new cooking technique, and if that involves some never before seen chemical method, then it's a scientific development.

never before seen chemical method?
so the first time somone added salt to chips was a 'scientific development'?
adding caffine to food is hardly a 'never before seen chemical method'
adding ice cream to a soft drink is more scientific.

I thought chemical was a term used to descibe a substance that cannot be broken down.
Oh I have seen a chemical method.
Instead I call it chemical cocktails.
If I am not mistaken look at Sunny Delight. I remember a couple of years ago, their drinks looking like a liquid that came out of a chemistry lab with all the chemicals they put inside. Look at the back of that chilly cheese string thing I mean cheese slices and strings without the cheese inside that are packed full of salt. I don't think salt in large amounts is healthy.
