Our perception of eating is drifting farther and farther away from the notion of assimilation. Through a gradual cultural devaluation of eating, with food being increasingly delivered, processed, gulped in, thrown away, and gulped in again, we merely consume food rather than eat food the way we should. Consequently, we are no longer aware of who we share our food with and by whom our food is created.
Millswiss© as a project aims to reconnect us to the very essence of eating, by proposing spaces that enable us to assimilate towards the eaten. A switch of domains takes place, as in Millswiss© we are the eaten. By establishing this new culinary relationship, Millswiss© wants us to reconsider our personal position towards eating and help us define how we can eat better.

Poem
Dear Human,
I want you to travel
the way you made me do
I want you to experience
the way you made me do
I want you to be me
in order for you to be you
I want you to wash yourself
I want you to heat up
I want you to rest in soft capsules
I want you to be massaged
I want us to share
I want us to shed our skins
I want us to come closer
I was in your Millie
Be in mine
Yours truly,
Grain
