Sharon Van Etten is on the road now touring her seventh album, Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory. But as much as she loves writing and performing music, she has considered a couple different career paths: therapist and sommelier! Sharon’s love of wine started in high school, when she was an exchange student living with a family in Spain. So host Rachel Belle interviews the founders of Open That Bottle Night, a couple of former Wall Street Journal wine writers who created an annual holiday to encourage people to open the special bottles of wine that no occasion seemed to be special enough for. Sharon says she doesn’t like to cook when she’s in a bad mood because the food always ends up tasting bad. Rachel calls up cognitive neurologist Dr Rachel Herz, author of Why You Eat What You Eat, who says food actually does taste different when you’re sad, angry, depressed or happy.

Everyone loves the delicious smells of baking bread or cookies, gardens in the springtime, or fresh fruit ready to eat. But did you know that those smells have a significant impact on your eating habits? This week, Dr. Sandi welcomes Rachel Herz, a neuroscientist and expert on the psychological science of scents and smells. Without a sense of smell, food wouldn't be the same. According to Herz, aroma has such an impact on our taste that it can genuinely make a difference in the enjoyment of eating. Sure, the mouth can taste the five different flavors (salt, spice, sugar, sour, and umami) and feel the texture of the food, but the smell gives us complex flavors and tastes that draw us to our favorite foods. Moreover, food scents drive cravings and hunger, influencing our food decisions in ways you might not believe. Episode Highlights Learn why your sense of taste mostly comes from your sense of smell. Understand why smelling sweets or fast food for a few minutes leads people to eat healthier options. Get tips and tricks on how you can improve your sense of smell. Hear about how you can make the most out of your eating experience by adding a bit of mindfulness. Find the transcript here: https://functionalmedicinecoaching.org/podcast/rachel-herz-074/

A neuroscientist discusses how smell influences everything from emotions and relationships to identity and wellbeing. Our sense of smell is something many of us take for granted, but this sensation is more powerful than you may think. “It literally filters through all aspects of our existence,” explains neuroscientist Rachel Herz, “and the more we deliberately use our sense of smell…the better our brain health is, and even the general health of our bodies.” Smell also plays an important role in art, with many artists using scent as a way to prompt questions. These artworks encourage us to slow down and engage our senses. As Herz reminds us, when we stop and smell the metaphorical roses, “it can really ground us and bring us into that moment.” For this month's Ten Minutes podcast, we dig into the complex process that takes beans to bars, and the real-world impact chocolate has on the people who make it.

Out of all the senses, smell is probably the one that strongly brings out emotional memories and experiences. Closely related is our sense of taste, making our experience of food much more potent. Joining us today to dig deep into the future of smell and taste is Dr. Rachel Herz, a neuroscientist and world-leading expert on the psychological science of smell. She helps us understand the variables that affect our relationship with food, particularly that of smell and taste, so we feel the power and control over it rather than food controlling us. She also discusses the difference between supertasters and non-tasters, how taste is defined by genetics, why some people have an aversion to certain smells, and the debilitating effects of losing your sense of smell. COVID has undeniably reminded us of the value of our sense of smell and taste. And Dr. Herz is someone who helps propel the science and research that could shape the future of this area. Tune in as she tells us more about the science of smell and taste and what it can do to better health outcomes.Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share! http://thefuturistsociety.net/

It's not hard to start feeling relaxed when you experience a virtual reality visit to a mountain top, taking in the beautiful views of forested peaks and valleys and hearing the rustling breeze. You can actually feel transported from the real world. But imagine how much more transporting it would be if you could also smell the pine trees? Well, now you can, thanks to OVR Technology, a Vermont-based company that has overcome substantial technical challenges to seamlessly add scent to the VR and AR experience. “Research has shown quite directly that adding sense of smell to VR tangibly increases presence and immersion and the key factors that everybody is looking for when they experience a VR environment,” says neuroscientist Dr. Rachel Herz, the company's chief scientific adviser. And because not everyone has positive associations with scents from the real world, says CEO Aaron Wisniewski, OVR is creating new ones to facilitate the therapeutic impact of the scented VR experience. Both stress that the applications for the technology go well beyond recreational use, and the units are already being deployed in clinical settings with one study showing a major -- and lasting -- drop in levels of pain, stress and anxiety among inpatients after doing just a few short sessions with the OVR headset per week. Don't miss this fascinating conversation with host Michael Carrese as we explore how OVR's groundbreaking technology is adding a powerful new dimension to the virtual world.Mentioned in this episode: https://ovrtechnology.com/
Why are some smells so nasty and others so pleasant? Rutherford and Fry inhale the science of scent in this stinker of an episode. Our sleuths kick off with a guided tour of the airborne molecules and chemical receptors that power the sense of smell. Armed with a stack of pungent mini-flasks, professor Matthew Cobb from the University of Manchester shows Hannah and Adam just how sensitive olfaction can be, and how our experience of some odours depends on our individual genetic make-up. Dr Ann-Sophie Barwich from Indiana University reveals how most everyday smells are complex combinations of hundreds of odorants, and how the poo-scented molecule of indole turns up in some extremely surprising places. With the help of a flavoured jellybean and some nose clips, Hannah experiences how smell is crucial to flavour, adding complexity and detail to the crude dimensions of taste. Speaking of food, listener Brychan Davies is curious about garlic and asparagus: why do they make us whiff? Professor Barry Smith from the Centre for the Study of the Senses reveals it's down to sulphur-containing compounds, and tells the story of how a cunning scientist managed to figure out the puzzle of asparagus-scented urine. Finally, another listener Lorena Busto Hurtado wants to know whether a person's natural odour influences how much we like them. Barry Smith says yes - we may sniff each other out a bit like dogs - and cognitive neuroscientist Dr Rachel Herz points to evidence that bodily bouquet can even influence sexual attraction!
Do you save things that take up space that you know you will never, ever use again? This episode begins with some simple advice that will help you clear out some items from your home or office and free up some space for what's really important. Source: Barbara Hemphill author of “Love It or Lose It (https://amzn.to/31wfIdq) People say that if they had to give up one of their senses, they would give up smell. After listening to this episode, you may decide to answer that question differently. That's because people don't realize how important smell is to your physical and emotional well-being. Joining me to explain why smell is important and how to make the most of it is Rachel Herz.

Frequently, people put off those experiences until later in life – often after they retire.

From the artisans of Ancient Egypt, to the revolutionary parfumiers of Renaissance France and the designers working digitally in the dungeons of petrochemical labs, perfume is one of the most available and affordable luxuries. Initially exclusive to the halls of royalty, it's now available for £15 from your local chemist - the perfume industry continues to grow with our consumer culture. Are you smelling a story? In this first episode of All Consuming, hosts Charlotte Williams and Amit Katwala make scents of the perfume industry. They sniff out why fragrance films are so fantastical, catch a whiff of how industrial perfume producers manufacture at industrial scale, and hold their noses as actors take “method” to fragrant new frontiers. Charlotte meets the perfumer to the stars Azzi Glasser and takes the chance to smell bespoke fragrances designed for Hollywood A-listers. Amit introduces us to nose-in-the-know Luca Turin, a biophysicist who moonlights as a fragrance author. And smell psychologist Rachel Herz reveals why the smells of those we love can sometimes become repulsive. Producer: James Tindale A Whistledown production for BBC Radio 4.

Among the needs all 7 billion of us on the planet have in common is our need to eat. Food allows us to survive, thrive, and it can bring immense pleasure. However, how things taste and what we like is unique to us all. But despite our uniqueness, there are certain trends. For example, we order tomato juice on airplanes at a far greater frequency than we do on land. Why is that? And have you ever noticed you can have an entirely different experience of taste depending on how a food or drink is presented, where they're consumed, the type of music that's playing in the background, and even based upon the color of the plate it's served on? These will all be addressed on this episode. Dr. Rachel Herz (https//www.rachelherz.com) is a neuroscientist, a professor at Brown University, and a world-leading expert on the psychological science of smell. She is the author of several books including one on smell called, The Scent of Desire. Another book of hers called That's Disgusting, and it takes a scientific look at repulsion. Her most recent book explores the science behind our relationship with food and is called, Why You Eat What You Eat. I loved the book and couldn't stop smiling as I devoured the audio version. And I am not alone—it was listed among the “Best Food Books of 2018” by The Smithsonian and The New Yorker and has been praised high and low by the press and thought leaders. So, join Rachel and me as we explore a journey of the senses and Why You Eat What You Eat!

Whether you yawn, gasp, sniff, snore, or sigh, you’re availing yourself of our very special atmosphere. It’s easy to take this invisible chemical cocktail for granted, but it’s not only essential to your existence: it unites you and every other life form on the planet, dead or alive. The next breath you take likely includes molecules exhaled by Julius Caesar or Eleanor Roosevelt. And for some animals, air is an information superhighway. Dogs navigate with their noses. Their sniffing snouts help them to identify their owners, detect trace amounts of drugs, and even sense some diseases. Find out what a dog’s nose knows, and why no amount of bathing and dousing in perfume can mask your personal smelliness. Plus, why your own schnoz is key to not only enjoying a fine Bordeaux, but to survival of our species. Guests: Sam Kean – Science writer, author of “Caesar’s Last Breath: Decoding the Secrets of the Air Around Us” Ken Givich – Microbiologist, Guittard Chocolate company Alexandra Horowitz – Dog cognition researcher, Barnard College, author of “Being A Dog: Following the Dog Into a World of Smell” Rachel Herz – Cognitive neuroscientist, Brown University, author of “Why You Eat What You Eat,” and “The Scent of Desire: Discovering Our Enigmatic Sense of Smell” Originally aired December 4, 2017
In this episode, Frauke sits down with neuroscientist Dr. Rachel Herz to talk about the fascinating topic of scent memories. They discuss the difference between how we process everyday smells vs. scent evoked memories, and why memories triggered by scents are truly more emotional than memories triggered any other way (including music!). Dr. Herz reveals why scent memories formed in the first 10 years of life are so pronounced, and why they're so hard to undo (especially negative ones, ie. PTSD, sexual assault). She shares how we can take positive scent memories and harness them to help us de-stress and be well, and encourages us to actively smell train our nose to improve our sense of smell. Stick around to the end and learn a more personal side of Dr. Herz, as she reveals the 5 smells that best describe her.

Have you ever gone to the supermarket only to find everything had been moved around? Why do they move things around when you have gotten to know where every thing is? I’ll explain why they do that and other little tricks supermarkets play on you. http://www.popsugar.com/smart-living/Supermarket-Psychology-Tricks-18344600?stream_view=1#photo- Ever wonder why certain things disgust you? The things you find disgusting may be perfectly acceptable – even pleasing to someone else. Disgust turns out to be a fascinating human emotion. No other animals get disgusted by the things like we do. And this emotion has served us well. Rachel Herz, a teacher at Brown University is also author of the book, That’s Disgusting: Unraveling the Mysteries of Repulsion (https://amzn.to/2xTcjVG) joins me to discuss why we get disgusted. Very few people think they look great in photographs. So I have some advice from top photographers on what to do so you look great in every photograph you are in – no matter who is taking the picture. https://www.thrillist.com/lifestyle/nation/how-to-look-better-in-photos-best-ways-to-pose-for-pictures It is amazing to think that so many inventions that changed how we live could’ve been invented a lot sooner. The stethoscope, the compass, human flight and other inventions took way too long to materialize since the technology for them was around a long time ago. It’s just that no one figured out how to put it all together. Ryan North, author of the book How to Invent Everything: A Survival Guide for the Stranded Time Traveler (https://amzn.to/2DFFLoy) takes us on a journey back in time and explains what went wrong.

Would you rather lose your cell phone or your sense of smell? Apparently, a lot of chuckleheads would be OK with losing their sense of smell. BUT! Did you know just how integrated your sense of smell is to your mental and physical well-being, your ability to sniff out an ideal mate, and experiencing a full spectrum of emotions (and flavors!) in 4kHD? Tim Apple could never.Neurologist and smell-specialist Rachel Herz kindly blows our smooth little minds with heaps of information about just how underrated and underestimated the sense of smell is — like how pheromones are a myth, how you can detect various diseases and illness through body odor, how hanging out with babies and other pregnant women can make you more fertile, and how Big Brother may very well soon be using odor profiles to track us. Listen to this episode and never take your sense of smell for granted again! And then immediately go read Rachel Herz's books: The Scent of Desire, Why We Eat What We Eat, and That's Disgusting.[Fragrances mentioned: Maison Margiela Replica Bubble Bath] Follow us on Instagram at @smellyalater.mp3 for episode updates and the occasional meme.
In this episode we learn about single-origin spices and how our food habits are continuing to evolve.
If you've ever been to Las Vegas, you're well aware of the unique scents of the various casinos & hotels up and down The Strip. In fact, if you ask people what one of their favorite parts of Vegas is, they'll tell you "it's the smell inside the casinos". And it seems that everyone has their own preferred scent - so much so, that there are thousands of posts online from people asking how to either purchase or duplicate their favorite casino scent. But what's the big deal about smell? Why is the scent of a casino so important that the companies that own them spend MILLIONS of dollars on creating these so-called "signature scents"? To get the answer, I decided to talk to an expert... My guest for this episode is Dr. Rachel Herz, a world-renowned expert on the psychological science of smell. Dr. Herz is a cognitive neuroscientist, a TED-X speaker and a published author of both numerous research publications and several books on the topic of the science of smell. We discussed what piqued her interest in the psychology of scent, the connection between scent and emotion & memory and how businesses use scent to affect customer behavior. To learn more about the science and psychology of scent, visit Dr. Herz's website or follow her on Twitter. You can also pick up one of her books: "The Scent Of Desire: Discovering Our Enigmatic Sense Of Smell" "Why You Eat What You Eat: The Science Behind Our Relationship With Food" That's Disgusting: Unraveling The Mysteries Of Repulsion" And if you want your home to smell exactly like your favorite Vegas casino, visit Aroma Retail's website and check out their "Resort Collection" which includes scents from the Bellagio, Aria, the Cosmopolitan, Luxor, the Flamingo, Mandalay Bay, Wynn and many others!

How many things are taking up space in your house that you will never, ever, ever use again? This episode begins with some simple advice that will help you clear out some things from your home or office and free up some space for what’s really important. Source: Barbara Hemphill author of “Love It or Lose It (https://amzn.to/31wfIdq) Your sense of smell is fascinating. Still, it is the one sense that people would be most likely to give up if they had to. That’s likely because people don’t realize how important smell is to your physical and emotional well-being. Here to explain why smell is important and how to make the most of it is Rachel Herz. Rachel is a researcher who teaches at Brown University and Boston College and is author of the book The Scent of Desire: Discovering Our Enigmatic Sense of Smell (https://amzn.to/3gtkP21) A lot of people believe that playing classical music helps plants grow. People also believe that certain types of music will make babies smarter. But what does this research say? Listen and find out Dan Levitan author of This Is Your Brain On Music https://amzn.to/3jivqyJ We all have things we want to do before we die. What often happens though is, people put off those experiences until later in life - often after they retire. However, for many experiences, it isn’t just having the experience – it is WHEN you have it. Some things are meant to happen when you are 30 not 70. Bill Perkins has given this a lot of thought.

Taste and smell loss are thought to be two of the most common symptoms of coronavirus, but some of the least understood, persisting long after the virus has gone. Scientists all over the world are racing to find out why Covid-19 is attacking these senses, and what this might teach us about the virus and how to track it – we hear about the latest theories from Turkey-based research scientist Maria Veldhuizen from The Global Consortium for Chemosensory Research. Meanwhile, thousands of coronavirus survivors are struggling to adapt to a life without taste and smell, including a young doctor who tested positive for the virus more than three months ago. She tells Graihagh Jackson how she’s been desperately trying to recover her sense of smell ever since, and how it has destroyed one of her great passions – food. We hear how smell is vital to the way we perceive flavour, but that it’s also important in other ways. Dr Rachel Herz, a neuroscientist and researcher on the psychology of smell at Brown University and Boston College in the US, explains that long-term smell loss is linked to depression because of the way the sense is plugged into the part of our brain that processes emotions and memories. But there is some hope - we speak to Chrissi Kelly, from the charity Abscent, who tells us how it’s possible to train your nose to smell again.

Intermittent fasting has been on the periphery of my attention as something getting buzz in the broader world of food and food marketing. In fact, intermittent fasting is among the most popular weight loss strategies as we roll through 2020. According to an annual survey by the International Food Information Council, about 10% of Americans tried intermittent fasting in 2019, second only to “Clean Eating.”An app promoting intermittent fasting - DoFasting - broke through the onslaught of January diet marketing for me because fasting brings back poignant memories. Not because I’ve fasted to lose weight, but because fasting was an annual event in my family growing up. Breaking the fast is what I remember most and best. Food never tasted so good! And not just any food. Special food that did more than replenish your energy. A hearty, nourishing soup called harira (I give you my vegan version of it in this episode), figs, dates, eggs, and a special Moroccan sweet treat called chebakia.This wave of interest in fasting got me wanting to revisit my experiences to better understand the potential of fasting, especially as something more than a way to lose weight. From my limited experience it seems like fasting can heighten the pleasure of eating and offer emotional, even spiritual rewards if it’s part of an overall approach to eating.In this episode I talk to Liliya, who recently started a fasting Meetup group, about her experience and why she's a big proponent of IF. I also speak with Dr. Rachel Herz, a neuroscientist who specializes in perception and emotion, and author of "Why You Eat What You Eat." She tells me about some of the latest research into the health benefits of intermittent fasting related to managing insulin. Dr. Herz also talks about how we experience food after not eating for a long time, and speculates on the potential emotional benefits we derive from breaking the fast. Martina observes a vegan fast for weeks at a time, in addition to periodic 18-24 hour fasts. She describes the spiritual rewards of fasting.Then we talk about food to break the fast with. Mehdi Menouar, owner of Meska Sweets, a Moroccan bakery/patisserie in Englewood, NJ, talks about his Moroccan Macaron and elaborates on chebakia, the heavenly cookie/pastry that is one of my favorite things in Moroccan cuisine, and a staple during the fasting month of Ramadan.

Wondering whether God is real is a question many are tempted to answer with evidence or scientific proof. Instead of focusing on this approach, what would it look like to focus on our relationship with God as “proof” of his presence? Join Rick and Becky for a new series exploring the essential questions everyone has and the ways Jesus can answer them. Diving into Matthew 6 and Luke 7, we’ll examine how Jesus reveals God’s existence. Have you joined the Pigs? We’re a group of friends ready to go all-in with Jesus—to live a life that’s “free indeed” because we’re wholly dependent on him. Join us for exclusive behind-the-scenes insights, opportunities to make your voice matter, prayer support, and connections to other Pigs inside our private Facebook group.

Paul Rozin has been studying the psychology and culture of food for more than 40 years. And he's come to appreciate that food fills many of our needs, but hunger is just one. On this week's Radio Replay, we chew over the profound role that food plays in our lives. Then, we spit it all out — we study the ick factor that turns us off to cockroaches, skunks, and poop. Rachel Herz explains the sensation of disgust, and why it doesn't always come naturally. For more information about the research in this episode, visit https://n.pr/2UTf1p0.

新知日历 | 喜马拉雅平台首档自制知识资讯类音频节目从专业人士演讲、权威学术期刊、社会热点文章，行业大数据平台，分析报告等各类来源提取新认知、新观点和新趋势，为用户提供每日高品质知识资讯。新认知 | 小时候的味道，为什么记得那么深？Hi，你好！ 欢迎打开今天的新知日历！如果问到80、90后，有什么共同的回忆？那一定少不了，小时候校园门口卖的两角钱一根的大白糖冰棍，大大卷泡泡糖，小当家干脆面，还有，现在依然异常火爆的“辣条”。 这些零食有一个统称，叫做童年的味道。 很多人为了找回这种童年的味道，还坚持买回小时候心爱的零食来尝一尝。可是与记忆中的味道又一样吗？ 可能多数人在尝过之后都失望了。那么问题来了，小时候的味道，为什么记得那么深？ 我们先来探讨一下味道，科学家证明：味觉和嗅觉所感受到的味道，实际上并不是一回事。舌头只能尝出酸甜苦辣咸，而我们所说的“味道”大部分是由嗅觉闻到的。 不信？我们来做个小实验。 拿出一个你平时最喜爱的食物，比如巧克力，并把它分成两半，一半捏着鼻子吃完它。一半放开鼻子吃完它，体会一下味道有什么不同。 你会发现，捏住鼻子吃的食物，好像味同嚼蜡，并不是那么美味。 这个实验就说明，我们的味觉和嗅觉是分离的。而嗅觉的感受层次更丰富，简直比味觉高出一个维度。 是不是很神奇呢？更神奇的还在后面！ 科学家研究发现，其实根植在我们记忆深处的，并不是味蕾尝到的，而是嗅觉！嗅觉和记忆之前存在强关联！ 美国布朗大学的心理学教授雷切尔•赫兹（Rachel Herz）曾经做过一个实验，分别给被试者一部影片，一段声音和一种气味，请他们来记忆相同的场景。经过一定的时间之后，询问他们能记起来的具体内容，并设有专门的评定指标来测试记忆的还原程度。 实验发现，嗅觉激发的记忆，情感指标得分最高，更能引起共鸣，让人感同身受。 这说明，由嗅觉引发的记忆是深刻的，这是因为它帮助人记忆场景，而且在情感上能给人更强的满足感。 那嗅觉与记忆的这种“特殊”联系是为什么呢？ 那就是味道的特殊性，这种特殊性来源于不同味道的混合，而这种混合的味道通常是在一个特定场景下产生的。 举个例子，我们经常会想念奶奶做的饭菜，但想念的仅仅是饭菜的香味吗？ 或许还有奶奶屋里的樟脑球味、卫生间里的洗衣粉味、奶奶身上的清香味，各种味道的混合成就了它的独一无二。 每当闻到相似的味道，仿佛又看到奶奶忙忙碌碌的背影，还有始终不变的笑颜。 如果你听过我们《新知日历》之前的一期，就是《失忆是为了更好的记住》那期。你可能还记得当时咱们说过，记忆存储的方式是按照场景来分类的。 而嗅觉与记忆之间的强关联，就是因为嗅觉能帮助还原整个场景，使当年的记忆被重新激活。 所以我们对小时候的美味记忆深刻，是因为怀念小时候的场景。现在再去吃，即便味道没变，场景已经变了，所以感受完全不同了。 我们觉得小时候两毛钱的冰棍儿，比现在20块钱的冰淇淋还好吃。是因为冰棍儿中有我们放暑假的欢乐。 小时候五毛钱一包的辣条，顶得上现在的一顿大餐，那是因为，辣条中有小朋友们分享的笑脸。 从这个意义上来说，如果你老惦记着童年的味道，那说明你有一个值得怀念的童年。 希望这期的节目可以让你会心一笑，我们下期再见！好了以上就是今天的新知日历。我是煜霖，欢迎给我留言！Source1.闻到小时候的味道，为什么会让你想起小时候?2.一顿烤鱼揭开身世之谜？“小时候的味道”有多神奇？3.嗅觉和记忆之间是否有不同于其他感官的特殊的联系?4.嗅觉和记忆撰稿 | 项梦瑶主持人 | 张煜霖，原海南电视台、杭州电视台主持人、记者。主编 | 韩悦思节目运营 | 鲜灵康专辑图视觉创意 | 贺归昀主视觉 | 李芳舟欢迎订阅，拓展你的知识边界
(Repeat) Whether you yawn, gasp, sniff, snore, or sigh, you’re availing yourself of our very special atmosphere. It’s easy to take this invisible chemical cocktail for granted, but it’s not only essential to your existence: it unites you and every other life form on the planet, dead or alive. The next breath you take likely includes molecules exhaled by Julius Caesar or Eleanor Roosevelt. And for some animals, air is an information superhighway. Dogs navigate with their noses. Their sniffing snouts help them to identify their owners, detect trace amounts of drugs, and even sense some diseases. Find out what a dog’s nose knows, and why no amount of bathing and dousing in perfume can mask your personal smelliness. Plus, why your own schnoz is key to not only enjoying a fine Bordeaux, but to survival of our species.

Food lover and acclaimed neuroscientist Rachel Herz joins the party with news you can use from her excellent book, Why You Eat What You Eat. Dr. Herz is famous for explaining in simple language how the brain works in relation to food. She’ll explain how a favorite scent can distract you from cravings, why diet fads should be taken with a grain of salt, and what physiological and psychological components contribute to the feeling of fullness after a meal. Our eating habits are evolutionary! (That’s why we can’t eat if someone is staring at us). There are plenty of fun facts too. We’re spending the whole hour with Dr. Herz and offering up her book as our thank you gift for supporting The Faith Middleton Food Schmooze and everything you hear on Connecticut Public Radio.

With PHLUR, customers get an immersive online experience where they can view images, playlists and horoscope-like descriptions to choose their fragrance style without actually having to smell it first. Apparently, it's scientifically proven that humans smell first with their eyes.

When scientist Rachel Herz decided to study the connection between smell and memory, she chose five products emblematic of childhood: Coppertone suntan lotion, Crayola crayons, Play-Doh, Johnson & Johnson baby powder and Vicks Vaporub. She studies the science of what’s called the Proustian phenomenon. The French novelist Marcel Proust writes about dipping a madeleine cookie into a cup of linden tea and the aroma immediately bringing him back to a long-lost memory. Producer Julia Longoria has always had that relationship with Vicks Vaporub — the scent transports her right back to childhood, to days in bed with the flu at her grandmother’s house in South Florida. Julia and her cousins all knew not to tell grandma when they were sick, or they’d risk being slathered with "Vickicito". Julia never had a reason to wonder why grandma loved Vicks so much, but this week’s episode reveals grandma’s love for the product is deeper than Julia imagined. And while investigating grandma’s (and the world’s) Vicks obsession, Julia is pulled into her family’s past, back to Cuba, before the Revolution.
