TruFlavorWare is an ultra-sturdy, non-metallic tabletop flatware originally developed for dysgeusia (metallic taste in mouth) sufferers. Dysgeusia is most often associated with chemotherapy treatments which can cause 50% or more of cancer treatment patients to experience a persistent "metallic taste" in their mouths, often leading to malnourishment by not eating. TruFlavorWare mitigates or even eliminates this aversive, metallic taste so that chemotherapy patients can eat normally and benefit from much needed food nutrition in order to better battle their cancer.

TruFlavorWare has the substantial weight, feel, strength and durability of metal flatware, but without any of the associated "metallic tastes" of using metal utensils. Furthermore, TruFlavorWare is dishwasher-safe, 100% taste-free and Eco-friendly.

In 2011, TruFlavorWare began to attract users other than chemotherapy patients in that the product became noticed by individuals looking to enhance the natural flavors of their food. Such users are yogis, food purists, culinary chefs and foodies simply seeking pure-taste in general.

TruFlavorWare's initial start-up funding was provided by several philanthropic grants from major corporations. In 2011, a taste test study was conducted at a major Ivy League university. A 2 to 1 majority of one hundred panelists concluded that TruFlavorWare vs. metal flatware did make the sampled food actually taste better. TruFlavorWare is now sold and distributed worldwide.
