Blindfolded Emily Sherman, left, and Michael Dujardin try to determine the ingredients of a Makers Mark peach sorbet during Dining in the Dark at the Taste of Traverse City event at the Aerie Restaurant and Lounge on Saturday. "We wanted to try something different," Sherman said of the idea of eating while blindfolded. "It makes you pay more attention." "People usually rush through their meals. (Blindfolding) gives them a chance to slow down, be curious about what's in their food," Carol Lewis, the producer of Taste of Traverse City, said.
