I tried desperately to peek out from under the blindfold, but to no avail. I'd made it to the last round of a food tasting competition, and felt incredibly hopeful. The prize was my own restaurant, and £500,000! I was currently sitting down in an extremely uncomfortable chair. My other senses were heightened now that I couldn't see. Carefully, some type of food was placed on my tongue. It tasted vaguely familiar, but it made my tongue tingle. Panic started rising inside me and I couldn't think. I had 5 seconds. I was so disappointed. It was all over.
