Raoul Martinez, an anchor at Fox’s local news affiliate in San Diego, managed to trick his colleague Shally Zomorodi into licking an iPad on the air on April Fools’ Day. It turns out that apps that let you taste the food and drink displayed on the screen don’t actually exist, or at least they won’t until the iPad 7 HD.
