PROEF
A SET OF TOOLS FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE DIFFICULTIES EATING
Every year, around 5000 people in the Netherlands have a tube installed in their stomachs permanently for tube feeding. All food is being pumped into their stomach or intestines directly. These people are capable of living regular lives like us, except they are not allowed to eat or drink ever again.
PROEF is a set of tools developed to create a new food experience.? The set includes a variety of sensations, flavors, feelings, movements, actions, etc. ?The flavors are related to particular cuisines or events so people can relate properly to what others around them are having.
